Pyogenic wound infections are one of the most common clinical entities caused and aggravated by the invasion of pathogenic organisms.
Prompt and aggressive antimicrobial therapy is needed to reduce the burden and complications associated with these infections.
In this study, we intended to investigate the common pathogens and their antimicrobial susceptibility patterns from the pyogenic wound infections at a tertiary care hospital in Kathmandu, Nepal.
A laboratory based cross-sectional study was carried out among the pyogenic clinical specimens of the patients visiting Manmohan Memorial Teaching Hospital, Kathmandu, Nepal.
Processing of clinical specimens and isolation and identification of bacterial pathogens were carried out using standard microbiological methods.
Antimicrobial susceptibilities and resistant profiles were determined by following the standard guidelines of Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI).
About 65% of the clinical specimens were positive for the bacterial growth and Gram positive bacteria (57.4%) were the leading pathogens among pyogenic wound infections.
Staphylococcus aureus (412, 49.28%), Escherichia coli (136, 16.27%), Klebsiella spp.
(88, 10.53%), and Pseudomonas spp.
(44, 5.26%) were the common pathogens isolated.
High level of drug resistance was observed among both Gram positive bacteria (51.9%) and Gram negative bacteria (48.7%).
Gram positive isolates were resistant to ampicillin, ciprofloxacin, cotrimoxazole, erythromycin, and cloxacillin.
Gram negative isolates were resistant to cephalosporins but were well susceptible to amikacin and imipenem.
Pyogenic wound infections are common in our hospital and majority of them were associated with multidrug resistant bacteria.
The detailed workup of the prevalent pathogens present in infected wounds and their resistance pattern is clearly pertinent to choosing the adequate treatment.
