The Study of Blood Culture for Prevalent Bacteria and Antibiotic Resistance on Hospitalized Patients

Bacteremia means invasion of bacteria to coronary- arthery system. One third of these cases lead to septicemia and in 40-50% cases, it causes patient’s death. Therefore information about resistance and prevalent of bacteria isolated from blood culture is important for deciding about suitable therapeutic management. This retrospective study was done on all positive blood cultures for typing and detecting of antibiotic resistance during 2001- 2005. Data was analyzed by statistical procedure. In 252 (4.35%) of studied blood cultures, the most prevalent bacteries were Staph. epidermidis (35.2%) and E. Coli (18.5%). The greatest and the least resistance antibiotics were βLactam (75.2%) and glycopeptide (7.8%) groups, respectively. With regard to antibiotic resistance increased during these years, awaring of the last changes about it in every therapeutic center is necessary.
