Overview

Cross-sectional study identifies bacterial profiles and antibiotic resistance in surgical site infections, indicating severe management challenges.

Key Points

  • A high prevalence of gram-negative organisms in surgical site infections was observed, indicating significant clinical implications.
  • Approximately 88.3% of patients had culture-positive infections, with Pseudomonas being the most frequently isolated pathogen at 31%.
  • The study utilized a cross-sectional design, employing standard laboratory techniques for bacterial identification and susceptibility testing.
  • Increased antibiotic resistance correlates with improper antibiotic use and irregular postoperative care, highlighting urgent healthcare concerns.
