摘要

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the most important pathogen with well versed multifactorial virulence factors associated with UTIs. The incidences and the rate of antibiotics resistance has been increased during these years amongst P. aeruginosa. In the present study antibiogram of Pseudomonas aeruginosa revealed that the overall percentage of resistance among all isolates was high. Isolates showed 91.30% (21/23) resistance while only 8.69% (2/23) isolates found to be susceptible. Multi drug resistance (MDR) was found to be present among isolates. Ampicillin was found to be the least active antibiotic while Imipenem, Ceftazidime and Cefepime showing good range of inhibitory activity against isolates. Prudent and more justifiable reasons for antibiotics consumption both for prophylactic and therapeutic use against UTI should be critically weighed against the side effect of resistance development.
