“…This result indicates high incidence of MDR-isolated clinical bacteria. Similar high rate (84%) was reported by Dash et al (23). Likewise, the findings of Okonko et al (22) who reported MDR to 5 antibiotics (ampicillin, chloramphenicol, Co-trimoxazole, nitrofurantoin, and tetracycline).…”

“…As shown in Table 2, imipenem was the most effective antibiotic against Pseudomonas species with 99.5% sensitivity followed by ciprofloxacin with 97.5% sensitivity. The high sensitivity of imipenem against gram-negative bacteria has been shown by others as well (Mokaddas and Sanyal, 1999;El-Tahawy, 2000;Bahashwan and Shafey, 2013;Dash et al, 2014). Ceftazine showed a sensitivity of 96.3%.…”

“…In a study of 411 P. aeruginosa isolates in Asian hospitals, the MDR, XDR ,and PDR rates of P. aeruginosa were 42.8%, 4.9%, and 0.7%, respectively (24). In a hospital in India, 84.7% P. aeruginosa isolates were MDR, of which 35.7% were XDR, and no PDR isolate was obtained (26). Mohanasoundaram et al (27) reported a similar MDR rate (71%) in a study in Tamil Nadu, India.…”
