Abstract
Objective: Colistin is frequently used in infections caused by multi-drug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which cause infections resulting in mortality, especially in intensive care units. In our study, it was aimed to reveal the distribution of colistin resistance rates according to years in A. baumannii and P. aeruginosa strains.
Özet
Amaç: Özellikle yoğun bakım ünitelerinde mortalite ile sonuçlanan enfeksiyonlara neden olan çoklu ilaca dirençli Acinetobacter baumannii ve Pseudomonas aeruginosa’nın sebep olduğu enfeksiyonlarda kolistin sıklıkla kullanılmaktadır. Etkenlerin antimikrobiyal direnç profilleri hastaneden hastaneye hatta hastane içinde farklı üniteler arasında değişiklik gösterebilmektedir. Çalışmamızda izole edilen A. baumannii ve P. aeruginosa suşlarında kolistin direnç oranlarının yıllara göre dağılımını ortaya koymak amaçlanmıştır.
