RESISTANCE PATTERNS OF PSEUDOMONAS AERUGINOSA ISOLATED AT DIEN BIEN PROVINCE GENERAL HOSPITAL IN 2024
Main Article Content
Abstract
Background: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen with intrinsic and acquired resistance to multiple antibiotics, posing a significant challenge in clinical settings. Methods: A cross-sectional study assessed the distribution patterns and antibiotic resistance profiles of P. aeruginosa isolates collected from Dien Bien Province General Hospital in 2024. Results: The prevalence of P. aeruginosa infection was 2.2% (66/3041). The majority of strains were isolated from respiratory specimens (86.36%), and patients aged ≥60 years (60.61%). The highest resistance rates were observed for Piperacillin/Tazobactam (92.4%) and Imipenem (89.4%), while resistance to other tested antibiotics ranged from 77.3% to 86.4%. Conclusion: Although the prevalence of P. aeruginosa infection at Dien Bien Province General Hospital is relatively low, the high levels of antibiotic resistance, underscore the urgent need for continuous antimicrobial resistance surveillance and robust infection control measures
