Study about Antibiotic Resistance in Serratia Spp. Isolated from Hospitalized Patients
نویسنده
چکیده
The retrospective study included 96 Serratia strains isolated from the patients hospitalized in the Clinical County Emergency Hospital Braşov during 2013. The objectives consisted in the evaluation of frequency and distribution of Serratia species in the hospital departments, in analysing the infections in which this germs were implicated and determination of antimicrobial resistance of the isolated strains. Most frequently Serratia spp. has been implicated in urinary infections (47.9%) followed by respiratory tract infections (14.6%) and varicose ulcer infections (13.5%). The resistance of Serratia strains to β-lactams was high, excepting imipenem (12%). For aminoglycosides, the resistance was higher in the case of gentamicin (90%).
