AMIRI S. AND JAFARZADEH E.

Abstract

This work investigated the prevalence and antibiotic sensitivity of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from wounds, Blood, Biopsy, Urine and secretaries of burn patients admitting Taleghani Hospital, Khuzestan, Ahvaz, Iran from 2018-2022. The primary variables under scrutiny were the antimicrobial susceptibility testing, which utilized disc diffusion and strip methods. The interpretation criteria employed for the study were the CLSI, and the percentage of resistant isolates was also considered. The results according to CLSI, resistance rates ranged from 3.64% (colistin) to 77.38% (amikacin).
