چکیده
Blood stream infections range from selflimiting infections to life threatening sepsis that requires rapid and aggressive antimicrobial treatment. A wide spectrum of organisms has been described that cause blood stream infections and this spectrum is subject to geographical alteration. Increasing antimicrobial resistance is a worldwide concern. The prevalence of resistance of blood borne isolates is increasing and it also International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences ISSN: 2319-7706 Volume 6 Number 1 (2017) pp. 184-193 Journal homepage: http://www.ijcmas.com

Blood stream infections can lead to life threatening sepsis and require rapid antimicrobial treatment. The organisms implicated in these infections vary with the geographical alteration. Infections caused by MDR organisms are more likely to increase the risk of death in these patients. The present study was aimed to study the profile of organisms causing bacteremia and understand antibiotic res...
