tailieunhanh - A retrospective study of the culture and sensitivity pattern of urinary tract infection causing organisms at RIMS teaching Hospital, Raichur, India

The objective was to assess the distribution of urinary tract bacterial pathogens and to determine the antibiotic susceptibility profile of the isolates in our setting. Single positive cultures with a colony count of >105 CFU on CLED medium were identified and their antibiotic sensitivity and resistance profile was depicted in the form of an antibiogram. | 2017 6 10 1530-1536 International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences ISSN 2319-7706 Volume 6 Number 10 2017 pp. 1530-1536 Journal homepage http Original Research Article https A Retrospective Study of the Culture and Sensitivity Pattern of Urinary Tract Infection Causing Organisms at RIMS Teaching Hospital Raichur India R. Venkatesh Naik Basavaraj V. Peerapur and P. Sandhya Department of Microbiology RIMS Raichur Karnataka India Corresponding author ABSTRACT A retrospective study was done and culture and sensitivity reports were collected from RIMS Teaching Hospital Central Laboratory Microbiology Department Raichur for a period of Sep 2014 to April 2016 were analysed. A total of 351 urine samples collected during a time period of 20 months from September 2014 to April 2016 and fulfilling the inclusion criteria were included in the study. The objective was to assess the distribution of urinary tract bacterial pathogens and to determine the antibiotic susceptibility profile of the isolates in our setting. Single positive cultures with a colony count of gt 105 CFU on CLED medium were identified and their antibiotic sensitivity and resistance profile was depicted Keywords in the form of an antibiogram. Out of 351 urine samples 217 urine samples were Urinary tract culture positive with significance. of the total isolates were identified as E. coli infections followed by Pseudomonas spp. Klebsiella pneumonia Proteus spp Antimicrobial Citrobacter spp Staphylococcus aureus Coagulase negative Staphylococcus resistance. and Candida spp . Among 199 gram negative organism isolated it was observed that 198 199 of total tested isolates were sensitive to Imipenem followed by Article Info Piperacillin Tazobactam 170 199 Cefoperazone sulbactam 128 199 Accepted Ceftazidime 112 199 Augmentin 107 199 Amikacin 105 .
