Their antibiotic sensitivity pattern

Infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus have a poorer prognosis when the infecting strain is Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) additionally MRSA strains are important for their resistance to many other commonly used antibiotics. The objectives of this study were to estimate the prevalence of MRSA strains in clinical specimens and to investigate their sensitivity pattern. A total of 480 various samples received in the department of Microbiology at MIMER Medical college and hospital, Talegaon were included in the study.

Escherichia coli is the most common organism causing urinary tract infection (UTI). This organism has the ability to produce Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamases (ESBLs), which confer multiple drug resistance making urinary tract infection difficult to treat. So treatment of UTI requires constant updating of the antibiotic sensitivity profile. Objectives of this study were to detect prevalence of ESBL production among E. coli isolates causing urinary tract infection and to detect their antibiotic susceptibility pattern.

Non-fermenting gram negative bacilli (NFGNB) are a group of aerobic, non spore forming bacilli. They either do not use carbohydrates as a source of energy or degrade them through metabolic pathways other than fermentation. They are ubiquitous in nature. Although they are commonly considered to be environmental contaminants, they have emerged as important nosocomial pathogens. Aim of this study was to characterize the prevalence of NFGNB distribution from various clinical isolates and to evaluate their antibiotic sensitivity patterns.

Neonatal septicemia is a clinically diagnosed condition having diverse etiology and changing antibiotic sensitivity pattern. The knowledge of common bacterial agents causing septicemia and their antibiogram is useful in deciding empirical antimicrobial therapy. The neonatal blood cultures were studied to know the bacterial species and their antibiotic sensitivity pattern. Aim of the study is to evaluate sensitivity pattern of bacterial isolates causing neonatal septicemia and to know clinical outcome of the cases.

Microbiological infection plays vital role in determining the outcome as well as cost and duration of the hospital stay for patients admitted in ICU setup. Of late nosocomial infections especially ventilator associated pneumonias (VAP) have been recognized to be associated with significant morbidity and mortality in intubated patients. It is of critical importance to do regular surveillance of important pathogen (like Methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), extended spectrum beta lactamase (ESBL) and carbapenemase producers) and its resistance pattern.

Enterobacteriaceae cause protean infections and are the common Gram negative isolates in a microbiology laboratory. Spectrum of multi-drug resistance includes AmpC, Extended spectrum beta lactamase and carbapenemase production with others. This was a cross sectional study to determine susceptibility pattern of AmpC and extended spectrum beta lactamase producing isolates against different antimicrobials.

Surgical site infections pose a major threat to the morbidity of immunosuppressed patients. They lead to increased hospital stay, delayed recovery, increased treatment cost and a high risk of spread of Nosocomial infections. The present study was conducted to identify the post-operative wound infection rate, to isolate and identify the bacterial pathogens and to determine its antibiotic susceptibility pattern. Total 70 pus samples were collected from patients having post-operative wound infections out of 716 operations performed during January to December, 2016.

Coagulase negative Staphylococcus (CONS), once considered as a commensal has now evolved as a major infectious pathogen with biofilm forming ability. This study was conducted to identify the antibiotic resistance pattern of varied CONS species in association with its biofilm forming ability. CONS isolated from various clinical samples were speciated. Their antimicrobial resistant pattern and biofilm producing ability were studied and analyzed. 7.98% of our clinical isolates were CONS, with 21.52% of them being Methicillin resistant (MR-CONS) and 78.48% were Methicillin sensitive (MSCONS).
