Background & objectives: Antimicrobial resistance leads to higher mortality rates, especially with the emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR), extensively drug-resistant (XDR), and pandrug-resistant (PDR) bacteria.
Hence, current study evaluated the prevalence of MDR, XDR, and PDR bacteria among various clinical samples.
Methods: The study was conducted at the department of Microbiology from January–December 2017.
The bacteria were isolated and identified based on the conventional techniques, such as morphological characters and Gram-staining as well as the automated methods, such as Vitek analyzer.
Antibiotic susceptibility was evaluated using Kirby–Bauer disc-diffusion method and Vitek analyzer.
Based on the antimicrobial resistance pattern, isolates were categorized into MDR, XDR, and PDR.
Data were analyzed using Microsoft Excel.
Results: Out of 1862 bacterial isolates analyzed, 61.6% and 38.4% were Gram-negative and Grampositive isolates, respectively.
Majority of the isolates were belonged to susceptible (65.2%) group, followed by MDR (30.8%) and XDR (3.9%) isolates group.
Among MDR isolates, both extendedspectrum β–lactamases and nonextended-spectrum β–lactamase-producing Escherichia coli (40%), Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (16.4%), Methicillin-resistant S.
epidermidis (14.32%), and extended-spectrum β–lactamase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (11.3%) were prevalent.
Among XDR isolates, Methicillin-resistant S.
epidermidis (68.7%), Methicillin-resistant S.
aureus (18.7%), and extended-spectrum β–lactamase-producing K.
pneumoniae (12.5%) were predominant.
Conclusion: Among all the isolates, E.
coli, K.
pneumoniae, Streptococci, Methicillin-resistant S.
aureus, and Methicillin-resistant S.
epidermidis were the most common drug-resistant isolates; however, no PDR isolates.
Isolates were predominantly procured from urine samples.
Further, the drug-resistant isolates were encountered exclusively in nosocomial infections.
The escalation of MDR bacteria can be reduced by antibiotic stewardship programme and implementing programs for hospital staff regarding hygiene compliance.
