Abstract:

Purpose: In this study, between January 2018 and January 2019, the aim is to retrospective assessment of microorganisms isolated from the wound location samples sent to the Medical Microbiology Laboratory of the Kahramanmaraş Milk Imam University Medical Faculty and to identify antibiotic resistance profiles. Tools and Methods: Examples of the wound place sent to our laboratory from different clinics are identified by conventional methods and the antibiotic resistance is determined by the Becton Dickinson Phoenix (USA) automated system. Results: 606 of the total 980 factors (61.80%) are gram-negative bacteria, 374 (38.10%) are gram-positive bacteria. The isolated microorganisms are S. aureus (22.30%), E. coli (22.20%), P. Aeruginosa (%16,60), A. Baumanii (%15,40), Enterococcus spp. S. epidermidis (7.70%) and K. pneumoniae (7.50%) are identified as S. epidermidis. Gram-negative bacteria are the most sensitive antibiotic amikacin. There is no resistance to the vancomia in the S. aureus. When the distribution of the factors according to clinics is studied, the sample of the wound site is found to come from the most frequently intensive care units. Result: Detection of infectious factors and their antibiotic sensitivities within a certain period of time will contribute to both the reduction of their resistance rates and the decrease of treatment costs.
