Abstract:
The bacteria most likely to cause hospital acquired infection are enteric those (35%), followed by S. aureus (25%), P. aeruginosa (13%) and S. pneumoniae (12.3%). S. aureus isolations have high rate of penicillin resistance, followed by chloramphenicol, ampicilline, cephalothine and oxacilline. P. aeruginosa has resisted to gentamycin and netilmycin and remains to be sensitive to amikacine, norfloxacine and ciprofloxacine. E. pneumoniae remains to be sensitive to most of test antibiotics, but it has resisted to chloramphenicol and penicillin. E. coli has high rate of resistance to ampicilline, cephalothine and chloramphenicol, but it remains to be sensitive highly to amikacin, netilmycin, gentamycin and tobramycin.
