Abstract
Background: Microorganisms are so infectious and active that they can cause diseases in relatively healthy individuals. There are various reasons for these diseases. These may spread from the contact with a diseased person such as influenza. When any pathogen invades the host cell then it may break its cell wall and rupture it. This type of infection may be a dangerous one. Well it also depends upon the ability of host cell to resist against this infection with the help of its immune system. Some pathogens called primary pathogens invade the healthy and normal host and maintain their activities within its host. Methods: The blood, wound and urine samples were collected from different patients. The blood sample was collected in blood culture bottle. In the laboratory all samples were culture aerobically through blood agar and MacConkey agar plates for 24h at 37oC temperature. The prevalence and resistance of antibiotic determine through catalase test, oxidase test. Results: The study included 800 samples from different patients. In which 337 samples were of wound infection, 179 samples of blood and 284 urine samples. In wound infection, the most prevalence bacteria's which cause wound infections were Staphylococcus aurous, Klebsiella pneumonia, pseudomonas spp. Antibiotic resistance pattern of Clindamycin on Staphylococcus aurous was 19% and sensitivity is 81%. Antibiotic resistance pattern of Clindamycin on Klebsiella pneumonia was 6% and sensitivity was 94%. Conclusion: Our study showed the incidence and resistance pattern of bacteria associated wound infection. Many bacteria's that causes infection but Staphylococcus aurous is the most prevalence bacteria in wound infection. The most sensitivity antibiotic on the Staphylococcus aurous was Clindamycin.
