Introduction: Pyogenic infections are an important cause of sepsis. These infections are difficult to treat because of the pathogens with increasing antibiotic resistance. It is important to know the pathogens causing the infections and its antibiotic susceptibility for proper management of the patients. Methodology: A retrospective analysis of 1428 culture positive pus and tissue samples received in the department of microbiology from various departments in the hospital between January 2012 to 2017 was performed. Data regarding the pathogen isolated and its antimicrobial susceptibility were collected and analyzed. The specimens were primarily processed, as per standard methods. Identification and susceptibility testing was done using the Vitek-2C system. Results: Among the samples males outnumbered females (M: F-2.5:1) and the median age was 47 years. The total number of patients were 1428 with total number of isolates being 1525 as in our study monomicrobial infections were seen in 93.2% (1331/1428) patients whereas combined infections with growth of two pathogens in 6.8% (97/1428). Gram-negative bacilli were isolated in 68.3% (1042/1525). Among the Gram-negative bacilli Escherichia coli was the major pathogen isolated (38.6%, 403/1042). Gram positive organisms were isolated in 31.6% (483/1525) of cases and Staphylococcus aureus was the predominant organism isolated (91.7%, 443/483). Rare pathogens like Burkholderia pseudomallei in 3 patients and Nocardia in one patient were also isolated. Conclusion: This study emphasizes to understand the common organisms isolated from wound infections and it helps in empirical treatment of patients based on antibiotic susceptibility patterns.

“…A study conducted by Koripella et al showed that highest number of sputum samples they received were from males aged 21 -60 years 12 and Biradar et al showed that highest number of pus samples received by them were from males aged 21 -60 years. 13 More samples were received from OPD/ community, especially urine in comparison to IPD and ICU samples except blood, sterile body fluids, catheter tips and tissue which were more from hospitalised patients. The prevalence of UTI in out and hospital patients can vary depending on geographical and regional location.…”

BACKGROUND Bacterial infections are important cause of morbidity and mortality among patients and antimicrobial resistance is a significant growing global threat. In this era of multidrug resistance, it is mandatory to know the bacteriological profile and antimicrobial sensitivity pattern of one's own institute. Hence, the following study was conducted to document the common bacteria isolated from various clinical specimens from patients of our institute and describe their antibiotic susceptibility. MATERIALS AND METHODSThe study was carried out in the Department of Microbiology from January 2016 to December 2016 in our institute. The study included 12,429 clinical samples comprising urine, blood, sputum, stool, pus, wound swabs, catheter tips, nasal swabs, throat swabs, vaginal swabs, sterile body fluids and tissue which were processed for culture, identification and antibiotic susceptibility testing as per standard recommended procedures. RESULTSSamples received were urine 55%, blood 21%, sputum 12%, wound swabs 3%, pus 2.5%, stool 2%, catheter tips 1%, body fluids 1% followed by others. Sample received from males and females were 47% and 53%, respectively. Samples received from 13 -65 years' age group, geriatric age group, paediatric age group and neonates were 69.4%, 24%, 6% and 0.6% respectively. Samples received from Outpatient Department (OPD), Inpatient Department (IPD) and Intensive Care Unit (ICU) were 54%, 43% and 3% respectively. 3,014 different bacterial pathogens were isolated. The prevalence of Gram negative bacilli was 90% and that of Gram positive bacilli was 10%. Out of all isolates 60% were from OPD samples, 37% from IPD samples and 3% from ICU samples. Among the pathogens isolated, Escherichia coli was 40% followed by Klebsiella pneumoniae 27%, Pseudomonas aeruginosa 13.4% and Staphylococcus aureus 8% followed by others. Most of the Gram-negative isolates were sensitive to carbapenems, aminoglycosides and beta lactam -beta lactamase inhibitor combinations. Approximately, half of them were sensitive to third and fourth generation cephalosporins and fluoroquinolones. Most of the Gram-positive isolates were sensitive to tetracycline, clindamycin, nitrofurantoin, glycopeptides and vancomycin, but resistant to erythromycin, trimethoprim/ sulfamethoxazole and fluoroquinolones. CONCLUSIONIn general, most of our Gram-negative isolates showed good sensitivity to carbapenems, aminoglycosides and beta lactam -beta lactamase inhibitor combinations. Sensitivity to cephalosporins and fluoroquinolones prevailed amongst half of them. High resistance to fluoroquinolones was seen among Gram positive isolates also. Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) prevalence was not very high. Such type of surveillance done regularly can help in optimising antibiotic use and thus help to curb antimicrobial resistance.
