Abstract
Nosocomial infections are a significant global health issue, posing serious public health challenges in hospitals worldwide. The rise of drug-resistant bacteria causing these infections is increasingly problematic, exacerbated by inadequate hygiene practices and routine antimicrobial use, which contribute to heightened antimicrobial resistance. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is common causes of nosocomial infections. Furthermore, antimicrobial resistance is frequently observed in these pathogens, posing significant challenges to treatment. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the commonest organisms causing different infections like wound infections, Lower Respiratory Tract Infection, Urinary tract infection, infections in burn patient in hospital setting. The increasing trend of antibiotic resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa poses a challenge to their empiric treatment with conventional agents. So, the objective of this study was to determine the prevalence and antimicrobial resistance pattern of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from different clinical samples.
