The Bacterial Profile and Microbial Susceptibility of Acute and Chronic Dacryocystitis in Matini Hospital, Kashan, Iran

Background: Recent studies have shown an increasing incidence of antibiotic resistance in dacryocystitis. Management diseases may include determining microbial agents and choosing appropriate antibiotics for treatment. Objectives: This study aimed to present the best treatments To this end, specimens' microbiology susceptibility were examined patients with dacryocystitis laboratory Kashan University Medical Sciences. Methods: cross-sectional was performed on 172 presenting acute chronic at Matini Hospital, Kashan, between 2017 - 2018. Patient characteristics, culture isolates, antimicrobial data collected. The PCR assay mecA gene all methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus isolates. Results: most common bacteria coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS), aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter baumannii. majority isolated microbes sensitive rifampicin, linezolid, amikacin, gentamicin. In Gram-negative bacilli, nine isolates extended-spectrum beta-lactamase positive. test showed frequency resistant S. aureus CoNS be 40 46.3%, respectively. Conclusions: Coagulase-negative frequently bacteria. highest observed rifampin, A high percentage carried gene.
