Antimicrobial Susceptibility Patterns of Clinical Isolates of Pseudomonasaeruginosa Isolates from Patients of Respiratory Tract Infections in a Tertiary Care Hospital, Karachi

Lubna Farooq

The current study was aimed to investigatepathogen burden and antimicrobial susceptibility of conventional use antibiotics against MDR P. aeruginosa. Sputum samples were collected by using non-probability sampling techniques from indoor and out-door patients; a total of 560 sputum samples were collected. Standard and specific microbiological methods were used to identify the clinical isolates. Antibiotic susceptibility pattern was determined by using the Kirby Bauer Disc-diffusion method. Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) guidelines 2019 were used to process the samples.
