Abstract:
Background: Antibiotic resistance is a popular condition, especially in hospitals. The development of multi-resistance strains of bacteria is a really interesting problem for the health branch. In Vietnam, antibiotic resistance surveillance programs are frequency performed, however, the results from them are limited. Objective: To determine the prevalence, component of bacteria species and the rate of antibiotic resistance of bacterial strains, which were isolated in the hospital. Subject and methods: 446 strains of pathogenic bacteria were isolated in Hospital 103 with routine microorganism technique. Antibiogramme was conducted with improved Kirby-Bauer technique. Results and Conclusion: Among these strains isolated in Hospital 103, the majority was the gram positive Cocci with Streptococcus spp (53.14%), S.aureus (19.73%). The gram negative was modest (under 10%). All the isolated bacteria were highly resistant to antibiotics (over 50%), except Augmentin. 29.85% of S.aureus resisted with Vancomycine.
