Abstract:
252 pathogenic bacterial strains have been isolated in Friendship hospital in 1997. Almost strains (66%) are gram negative. The majority of bacteria that caused urinary tract infection are gram negative rods. Gram positive cocci are predominant in the strains isolated from pus, exudates. All strains are tested for antibiotic sensitivity. Enterobacteriaceae are still sensitive to the third generation of cephalosporin, morfloxacin, gentamyxin, netilmixin. Pseudomonas aeruginosa are only sensitive to Amikaxin. Staphylococcus aureus are resistant to oxacillin in high level (54.6%), but still susceptible to bactrim, gentamyxin, vancomyxin.
