Resistance and Sensitivity of Pseudomonas Aeruginosa against Common Used Antibiotics in Tishreen University Hospital, Syria

Abstract

The multi-drug resistant bacteria to antibiotic is a global problem and wide spread which leads to infection that is difficult to treat and may result in death. Peudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen causing severe, acute and chronic nosocomial infections in urinary and pulmonary tracts, burns and wounds. Currently, there is an urgent and global need for alternative antimicrobial strategies to fight the continuous rise of P. aeruginosa resistance to different antibiotics. In this paper, we present the sensitivity and resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from patients’ samples admitted to Tishreen university hospital, Latakia, Syria against common used antibiotics.
