Abstract
Objective: To determine the frequency and susceptibility pattern of Pseudomon aeruginosa isolated from clinical specimens .
Methods: This cross sectional study was conducted in the Department of Microbiology at Agartala government medical college, under Gobind ballobh pant hospitals, from 1st January 2016 to 31st december 2016. Clinical specimens were collected from diffirent deperments of Gobind ballobh pant hospitals. Clinical isolates were identified by standard and specific microbiological methods. The antibiotic susceptibility pattern was determined by Kirby Bauer Disc diffusion method. Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) guidelines were used to determine the results.
RESULTS: We isolated 151 p aeruginosa from 5762 specimens comprising prevalence of 2.620 %. Amikacin was found to be most sensitive drugs followed by meropenem 70.19% ,imipenem 69.53 % and ofloxacin 64.23% .
Conclusion: Antibiotic resistant P. aeruginosa are emerging as a critical human health issue. There is an urgent need to resolve the issue by taking some preventive measures. Combined efforts of health care professionals and researchers are required to educate people about the proper use of antibiotics and other infection control measures.
