PROFILE OF MICROORGANISM AND ANTIBIOTIC SENSITIVITY PATTERN IN PATIENTS UNDERGOING EMERGENCY LAPAROTOMY FOR PERITONITIS

BACKGROUND: Peritonitis is one of the common emergencies and multiple organisms have been implicated in pathogenesis. Inappropriate prolonged use antibiotics attributed to emergence antibiotic resistance. METHODS: Retrospective observational study, from 1st January 2018 31st December 2019(Two years). Patients with secondary peritonitis undergoing surgery are included this study. Common pathogens its sensitivity pattern peritoneal fluid, blood surgical site were studied. RESULTS: Perforation most cause peritonitis. Cefaperazone-sulbactum Piperacillin-tazobactum empirical prescribed. Escherichia coli followed by Klebsiella pneumonia commonest microorganism isolated fluid found adequate for antibiotics. Enterococus candida organism culture. E-coli wound swab showed higher resistance Large intestine perforation has percentage infection. CONCLUSION: pneumoniae The shown be sensitive cavity. Wound isolates hence isolating assessing might prudent. Due geographical variation trends microorganism, it prudent surveillance on a local basis that can recommend appropriate
