RESUMO

Introduction: Neonatal septicaemia has great role in morbidityand mortality among neonates. Neonatal mortality rate hasbeen reported in India as 17 per 1000 live births as per 2016-17 data. Neonatal septicaemia may be of early onset or lateonset depending of the age of the neonates. The mostcommon bacterial agents involved are Group B Streptococcus,Klebsiella pneumoniae, CoNS, Streptococcus pneumoniae,Haemophilus influenzae etc. Diagnosis is done by manymethods but the most important and absolute mode ofdiagnosis is blood culture.Aims and Objectives: The present study is done for thedetection of bacteriological profile and their antibioticsusceptibility pattern in case of neonatal septicaemia. Earlydiagnosis and specific treatment can save the lives of manyneonates who are suffering from neonatal septicaemia.Materials and Methods: The material used for the diagnosis isvenous blood of the suspected neonates. Blood culture methodis used for the diagnosis of Neonatal septicaemia. Repeatedsubculture is done on Blood agar, Nutrient agar, andMacConkey agar plates. Confirmation of organism is donethrough different biochemical tests. The antibiotic susceptibilitytesting was performed on Muller Hinton agar (MHA) by KirbyBauer disc diffusion method for bacterial isolates, as perclinical and laboratory standards institute (CLSI) guideline.Results: Total 206 cases of suspected neonatal septicaemiawere investigated in which 142 cases are found positive. Mostcommon organism isolated was Klebsiella pneumoniae(39.44%) than Staphylococcus aureus (33.8%), otherorganisms are Escherichia coli (9.86%), CoNS (8.48%),Pseudomonas (5.63%), Enterococcus (2.82%) etc. overallincidence of Gram negative organism (54.93%) was more thanGram positive organism (45.07%). As far as antibioticsensitivity pattern was concerned most of the organism were100% sensitive to imipenem, meropenem and colistin B andresistant to Ampicillin.Conclusion: Gram negative isolates were more common thanGram positive as the causative agents of neonatal sepsis. Themost common causative organism was Klebsiella pneumoniae.The other organisms isolated were Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Staphylococcus aureus, CoNS, etc. Most of the Gram negativeisolates were sensitive to Amikacin, Gentamycin, Ofloxacin andCiprofloxacin but were highly susceptible to Meropenem,Imipenem and Collistin-B. The Gram positive isolates werebetter sensitive to Amikacin, Cephalosporin, Ciprofloxacin andClindamycin but were less sensitive or resistant to Ampicillinand Erythromycin. They showed high susceptibility toTicoplanim, Linezolid, Vancomycin and Methicillin.

RESUMO

Introduction: Incidence of Blood stream infection (BSI) is onthe rise and so is the increasing drug resistance amongdifferent organisms causing BSI. The trend of such infectionand the antibiotic sensitivity pattern may vary from region toregion.Materials and Methods: This study was conducted with thesame aim in which about 240 blood culture and sensitivityresults were noted from the records and were analysed to seethe current trend in this region. Our focus was mainly on Gramnegative organisms, as they have been found to causeincreased number of BSI.Results: Escherichia coli was the main Gram negativeorganism, and Staphylococcus aureus along with Coagulasenegative Staphylococcus (CoNS) were the main gram positiveorganisms isolated. Candida albicans was also found in four ofthe cases. The antibiotic sensitivity pattern of gram negativeisolates showed more than 90% susceptibility to higherantibiotics, whereas the susceptibility to other antibiotics werefound to be variable.Conclusion: E. coli is the main GNB causing the infectionfollowed by K. pneumoniae and P. aeruginosa. Increasingtrend of drug resistance is being noted by GNBs against mostcommonly used antibiotics.
