Susceptibility Patterns

Background: The present study aimed to find out the antimicrobial susceptibility pattern of the organisms isolated from cases of VAP Methods: This study was carried out in the Department of Microbiology,  by taking samples from clinically suspected cases of  VAP from different ICU( Medical, Surgical, Neonatal and Pediatric ICU) at tertiary care hospital attached to S. P. Medical College, Bikaner. Results: Out of 79 GNB, 63 (79.74%) isolates were found to be MDR, including 10 (66.67%)) isolates of MDR Pseudomonas. Conclusion: Adherence to infection control protocols and short term use of invasive devices and judicious use of antibiotics are also important in preventing VAP caused by these MDR pathogens Keywords: VAP, MDR, ICU

The study group consisted of 150 patients both male and female between 1 – 80 years, with primary and secondary skin infections who attended the out- patient department of Dermatology and surgery at Sree Balaji medical college and hospital a tertiary care hospital in Chennai, Tamilnadu, South India. Patients admitted as in patients in the above two department were also taken for this study. 28 out of 150 cases had primary bacterial and 122 had secondary bacterial skin infections. In this study the prevalence of Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) (40.8%) and Extended spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) (40.5%) producers among Enterobacteriaceae was higher. Estimation of MRSA and ESBL has to be done in tertiary care hospital to prevent and curtail further spread of these strains in hospital acquired infections. These isolates pose a serious threat for use of routine groups of antimicrobials.
