Abstract: Otitis Media, an infection of middle ear, is one of the health problems that can cause hearing loss to total deafness. The causes of otitis media are inter alia infections of the aerob bacteria. In Indonesia, the incidence of otitis media is 3.9-6.9 %. Patience compliance due to treatment, germ resistance, anatomy of the ear, and complications lead to difficulties in terms of treatment of the otitis media itself. This study aimed to determine the pattern of bacteria and their susceptibility to antibiotics in patients with otitis media. This was a descriptive prospective study with samples of 20 patients diagnosed with otitis media who met the inclusion criteria. The patients’ ear discharge was used for identifiaction and culture of bacteria in blood agar, nutrient agar and McConkey agar. Gram staining was used for bacteria identificatiion. Levofloxacin and cyprofloxacin were used for antibiotic sensitivity test. Conclusion: The identified bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus, Enterobacter Aerogenes, Staphylococcus Epidermitis, Proteus vulgaris, Cibrobacter divertus, Alcaligenes falcelus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Bacterial growth were mostly found in children. Almost all bacteria were sensitive to both antibiotics, but they were fairly resistant to clindamycin and erythromycin.Keywords: patterns of bacteria, sensitivity test, otitis mediaAbstrak: Otitis media merupakan salah satu gangguan kesehatan telinga yang dapat menyebabkan gangguan pendengaran hingga tuli. Gangguan pada otitis media terletak di telinga bagian tengah. Penyebab otitis media antara lain infeksi bakteri aerob. Di Indonesia, angka kejadian otitis media sebesar 3,9-6,9%. Ketidakpatuhan penderita dalam perawatan, kuman yang resisten, bentuk anatomi telinga, dan adanya komplikasi menyebabkan kesulitan dalam hal pengobatan dan perawatan otitis media.

Introduction: The skin is a barrier that limits invasion and growth of pathogenic bacteria. Bacterial species in patients with skin infection and their antibiogram were evaluated for the presence of inhabiting bacteria. Method: The sample obtained with swab sticks were streaked on their respective culture plates containing nutrient agar, MacConkey agar and blood agar, incubated 370 for 24h. The recovered bacteria after incubation were characterized and identified according to standard microbiological criteria. Results: Five bacteria species were isolated which includes Staphylococus aureus; Escherichia coli, Klebsiella specie, Proteus sp and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Staphylococus aureus (33.03%) had the highest percentage occurrence while Proteus Sp (9.17%) had the lowest percentage occurrence. The highest number of isolates were recovered from male patients (61.47%). Age wise the least percentage of isolates were gotten from age group 31-40 (1.83%) while the highest was obtained from those within the age range of 11-20 (40.37%) followed by 1-10 years of age (25.69%). More isolates were recovered from in-patients (68.81%) than from Out-patients (31.19%). The antibiotic sensitivity test showed that Klebsiella sp, Proteus spp and Staphylococcus aureus were sensitivity to all the antibiotics tested while pseudomonas aeruginosa had 30% activity (sensitivity to only 3 drugs) for the antibiotics used in this study. Conclusion: From this study, it can be said that Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella sp, Proteus sp and Pseudomonas aeruginosa are implicated in the skin infections in humans and their presence if not treated will lead to long term disease in human affected.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to determine the antibacterial resistant pattern of aerobic bacteria isolated from burn wound infected cases admitted in burn unit at Kanti Children’s Hospital, Kathmandu, Nepal during Nov 2017-Nov 2018. Material and method: In total 200 samples were collected, and that comprised 100 burns wound swabs and 100 biopsies of same patients. All samples were cultured on nutrient agar, MacConkey agar and blood agar at 37°C for 24 hours. The isolates were identified by culture, sensitivity and biochemical tests including oxidase, catalase, lactose and maltose fermentation. Their antibiotic sensitivity test was determined using Kirby Bauer disc diffusion technique. Results: The most common isolate was Pseudomonas aeruginosa (55%), followed by Staphylococcus aureus (19.29%), Klebsiella spp (11.43%), Acinetobacter spp (7.14%), Proteus spp (4.29%) and Escherichia coli (2.85%). Resistance observed in oxacillin (40%) and erythromycin (4%) to Staphylococcus aureus. Whereas all strains were susceptible to vancomycin. It was analyzed that ciprofloxacin (55.5%) & amikacin (54.0%) were found to be most effective antimicrobial agent. Other Gram negative organism were highly resistant to cefotaxime (66.0%) followed by gentamycin (60.0%). Imipenem was found to be less resistant (26%) against Pseudomonas. Conclusion: Vancomycin is the drug of choice for burn wound infection.

Antibiotics are one of the most commonly prescribed drugs today. Rational use of antibiotics is therefore extremely important as their injudicious use can adversely affect the patient. Drug Utilization Evaluation (DUE) is a system of ongoing systematic criteria based evaluation of drug that will help to ensure that medicines are used appropriately. It is drug/disease specific and can be structured so that it will assess the actual process of prescribing, dispensing, or administration of drug. The retrospective study was conducted At Pk Das Institute of Medical Sciences, Palakkad, Kerala for a duration of 6 months (February 2017 - January 2018). A source of data includes Patient case sheets &medication charts, nursing charts, culture & sensitivity reports. The inclusion criterion includes Patients aged between 18- 80 year, prescribed with oral and parenteral antibiotics. . On analyzing the gender, male gender (n= 111, 55.5%) were higher in numbers as compared to female counterparts (n=89, 44.5%). In our study the majority of the patients prescribed with antibiotics were with the clinical assessment of COPD (n=39, 19.5%), UTI (n=37, 18.5%) and LRTI (n=28, 14%), Bronchial asthma (n=19, 9.5%) respectively. On analyzing the data based on antibiotic sensitivity test, antibiotic test were performed and followed in (n=64,32%)prescriptions and in (n=47,23.5%)prescriptions were test is not followed respectively. In (n=89,44.5%) prescriptions, antibiotic sensitivity test is not performed. On analysis of antibiotics prescribed, the most commonly prescribed antibiotics were cephalosporins, of these ceftriaxone was highly prescribed of all (n=95). The high percentage of antibiotic prescriptions may indicate a high probability of irrational use. This study also point out irrational use of antibiotics are more leading to resistance, misuse and serious problems. So certain strategies should be put forward to strengthen rational use of antibiotics. Keywords: Antibiotics, Antibiotic Susceptibility Test, Irrational use, Resistance

BACKGROUND Pharyngotonsillitis is defined as a spectrum of conditions ranging from inflammation primarily confined to the tonsils to pharyngitis implying generalized inflammation of the whole of pharynx. Children are more prone to get several episodes of pharyngotonsillitis per year during their school years. Pharyngitis caused by Streptococcus pyogenes can cause two non-suppurative complications, acute rheumatic fever and acute glomerulonephritis which is responsible for significant morbidity and mortality. The present study was conducted to identify the prevalence of bacterial pathogens causing pharyngotonsillitis and to study their antibiotic sensitivity pattern that would indicate the optimum line of treatment. METHOD A total of 200 children at the age group of 2 - 12 years who had clinical features of pharyngotonsillitis according to the inclusion criteria were recruited for this study over a period of one year. With the help of a disposable wooden spatula, pus from the pharyngo tonsillar region was collected and processed. Predominant isolates obtained were identified and antibiotic sensitivity was done. RESULTS Bacteria was isolated from 70 samples. Pharyngotonsillitis was found most prevalent at the age group of 8 – 10 years. Intake of cold food stuffs and passive smoking at home was found to have statistically significant association as risk factor for pharyngotonsillitis. Staphylococcus aureus was the most common organism isolated followed by Streptococcus pyogenes. The other organisms isolated were group G and C streptococci, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsiella pneumonia sub species (spp) aerogenes. CONCLUSIONS Staphylococcus aureus was the most common organism isolated, followed by Streptococcus pyogenes. All the isolates of beta haemolytic streptococci were found to be sensitive to penicillin. There was increased incidence of resistance to macrolides among the gram-positive isolates except Streptococcus pneumoniae and it may be due to the wide spread use of macrolides injudiciously. All the bacterial pharyngotonsillitis cases were cured with the antibiotic given according to the sensitivity except one case.
