Abstract:
Infection due to antibiotic resistant bacteria creates more alarming situation in
both develop and developing country. Wound infection responsible for
significant human mortality and morbidity worldwide. Present study was
carried out in Nobel medical college and teaching Hospital Biratnagar. Aim of
the study was to know about the different causative microorganism of wound
infection and their antibiotic susceptibility pattern. Out of total 335 sample
225 sample were found positive and 110 sample were found negative Out of
total 225 positive samples 115 (50.67%) were found to be gram positive and
109 (48.44%) were found to be gram negative and single candida spp. In total
225 positive samples Staphylococcus aureus was found as predominant
occurring total 114 (50.67%) and then respectively followed by Escherichia
coli total 71 (31.56%), Enterococcus faecalis 15 (6.67%), pseudomonas
aerogenosa 13 (5.78%), Enterobacter aerogenes 4 (1.78%), proteus vulgaris 2
(0.89%), Acenetobacter anitratus 2(0.89%), Klebsella oxytoca 1 (0.44%),
Klebsella pneumoniae 1 (0.44%), diptheroids 1 (0.44%) and candida 1
(0.44%). The diversity of isolated bacteria and their susceptibility patterns
signify a need to implement a proper infection control strategy, which can be
achieved by carrying out antibiotic sensitivity tests of the isolates.
