Abstract:
Antibiotic resistance of P.aeruginota from 1991 to 2001 was determined on 44102 samples of bacteria. The rate of isolated P.aeruginosa varried from 6.5% to 19% in different time point. Amikacin resistance were found to increase rapidly. High resistance to gentamycin, to bramycin, cefotaxin, ceftriaxone and ceftazidime was reported. Antibiotics of new generation – cefepime and imipenem also became antibiotic resistant after a short term of treatment
