Mupirocin Resistance

Apropos to the article by Dr Bali, titled “Mupirocin resistance in clinical isolates of methicillin-sensitive and resistant Staphylococcus aureus in a tertiary care centre of North India” (1), the authors have raised important issue of emerging antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Antimicrobial resistance is an increasingly serious threat to global public health that requires action across all government sectors and society. As per WHO, AMR lurks the effective prevention and management of an ever-increasing spectrum of infections caused by bacteria, parasites, fungi and viruses. Novel resistance mechanisms are emerging and spreading globally, threatening the man’s ability to treat common infectious diseases.

Gram Negative

Non-fermenting Gram-negative bacilli (NFGNB) are emerging as important cause of blood stream infections. We aimed to determine the prevalence and antibiotic susceptibility pattern of NFGNB isolated from blood of patients with sepsis. We found, in 176 patients, the most common to be Pseudomonas aeruginosa (74) and Acinetobacter baumanii complex (39) followed by Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (16), Sphingomonas paucimobilis (6), Burkholderia cepacia (5) and Ochrobactrum anthropic (1). Generally, organisms showed a good sensitivity towards colistin, carbapenems and fluoroquinolones, whereas cephalosporins were ineffective.
