Overview

Observational analysis detected efflux pump genes in Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates, suggesting high antimicrobial resistance levels.

Key Points

  • Isolates showed high levels of multi-antibiotic resistance, indicating severe treatment challenges.
  • Phenotypic tests revealed 42% of isolates produced efflux pumps, contributing to resistance.
  • All isolates were found to possess the mexB gene, while 57.8% exhibited the oprM gene.
  • The analysis involved 100 wound samples collected over six months from three hospitals.
