【 摘 要 】

The present study was conducted to track down commonest gram negative bacilli along with their pattern of resistance to antibiotics from various clinical specimens, from patients admitted to intensive care unit. A total of 182 clinical specimens were analyzed using standard techniques. Out of 182 specimens 105 were culture positive, whereas the remaining 77 were culture negative.?? From 105 culture positive specimens 65 (61.90%) showed growth of gram negative bacilli, remaining 40 (38.09%) with growth of gram positive organisms. In this studyE .coliwas found to be the predominant isolate with 44.61% rate of isolation, followed byKlebsiella pneumoniae15.38%, rate of isolation of??Proteus mirabilis, Citrobacter fruendiieach accounting for 9.23%.Pseudomonas aeruginosa7.69%,Proteus vulgaris3.07%,Acinetobacter speciesandSalmonella typhiaccounted for 1.53 % each. To conclude, aerobic gram negative bacilli were predominant clinical isolates from patients admitted to intensive care unit. Amikacin and gentamicin were found to be effective antibiotics against gram negative bacilli in this particular setting"
