Overview

Cross-sectional analysis reveals high antimicrobial resistance in bloodstream infections in a tertiary care hospital.

Key Points

  • Bloodstream infections show a culture positivity rate of 32%, underscoring a significant public health concern.
  • Gram-negative bacteria predominate, with Klebsiella species and Escherichia coli being key pathogens, highlighting treatment challenges.
  • Antimicrobial susceptibility testing reveals high resistance, particularly to fluoroquinolones and carbapenems among Gram-negative pathogens.
  • Continuous surveillance of bloodstream infections is vital to mitigate resistance patterns and improve treatment outcomes.
