Overview

Retrospective analysis identifies bacterial isolates and multidrug resistance in sterile body fluids, highlighting concerns for effective treatment.

Key Points

  • Gram Negative Bacteria constituted 72.2% of identified isolates, with Escherichia coli being the most prevalent among them.
  • A total of 650 clinical samples were analyzed, leading to 72 positive bacterial growths, highlighting infection prevalence in sterile fluids.
  • The Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method revealed a significant presence of multidrug resistant bacteria, raising treatment challenges.
  • Emerging ESKAPE organisms underscore the importance of ongoing surveillance to curb antibiotic misuse and resistance.
