Antimicrobial Resistance Pattern of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Isolated from Burns and Wounds Infections in Hospitals of Baghdad

Abstract

The aims of this study is to shed light on Pseudomonas aeruginosa, since it is considered as the main source of medical clinic diseases and is manifestly resistant to most germ-killing drugs. The rise of Multidrug Strokes of Resistance (MDR) was recorded on the planet and represented an incredible test in the administration of diseases related to this organism. Significant work was carried out on strains of the majority of other diseases of this species in nations. However, little attention was given to the resistance profiles of strains in general isolated from the Middle East, and to the genetic diversity of isolates isolated from burns and wounds in Baghdad-Iraq patients. Potential risk factors of acquiring Multidrug- Resistant isolates and leading clonal growth in clinics and community settings still ambiguous. The transversal examination was done to risk factor detection related which carrying Multidrug Resistance Pseudomonas aeruginosa among the people in wounds, and antimicrobial susceptibility pattern among all the isolates was analyzed as well. The prevalence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa was 47% in 95 isolates from burns and wounds of 200 patients. The most significant prevalence of antimicrobial-resistance was observed for (Gentamicin) (92.63%),(Amikacin ) (86.31%), (Ciprofloxacin) (85.26%), and (Piperacillin) (65.26%). While Colistin the most potent resistance-prevalent antimicrobial drug, was 2.10%. Relatively, more resistance against antimicrobial was recorded in comparison with other researches.
