Klebsiella pneumoniae poses an urgent public health threat, causing nosocomial outbreaks in different continents. It has been observed to develop resistance antimicrobials more easily than most bacteria. These days, multidrug-resistant strains are being increasingly reported from countries. However, studies on the surveillance of very rare Ethiopia. This study aimed determine antimicrobial patterns and magnitude MDR K. isolates patients attending or admitted Tikur Anbessa Specialized...
Background: Production of Extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) and Carbapenemase is the most common strategy for drug resistance in clinical isolates Enterobacteriaceae . This study was conducted to determine magnitude ESBL production (CPE) among causing bloodstream infections (BSI) Ethiopia. Methods: A cross-sectional performed from September 2018 January 2019 total 2397 BSI suspected patients were enrolled blood culture using a BacT/Alert instrument combination with conventional methods...
Background Infections caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae have been difficult to control because of the worldwide emergence carbapenem-resistant isolates mainly due carbapenemase production. Information regarding carbapenemase-producing K . is still scarce in Ethiopia. Therefore, current study aimed determine prevalence and assess occurrence bla NDM KPC genes Methods A cross-sectional was conducted from September 2018 February 2019 at Tikur Anbessa Specialized Hospital, Addis Ababa, total 132...
Microbial contamination of the hospital environment plays an important role in spread healthcare-associated infections (HCAIs). This study was conducted to determine bacterial contamination, profiles, and antimicrobial susceptibility pattern isolates from environmental surfaces medical equipment.A cross-sectional at Tikur Anbessa Specialized Hospital (TASH) June September 2018. A total 164 inanimate located intensive care units (ICUs) operation theaters (OTs) were swabbed. All identified by...
When faced with a public health problem such as the COVID-19 pandemic, devising test an accurate and rapid diagnostic capacity is critical to contain disease. We compared performance of antigen in comparison reference method, namely real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay.
Abstract Microbial contamination of hospital environment plays an important role in the spread health care-associated infections (HCAIs). This study was conducted to determine bacterial contamination, profiles and antimicrobial susceptibility pattern isolates from environmental surfaces medical equipment. A cross-sectional at Tikur Anbessa Specialized Hospital (TASH) June September, 2018. total 164 inanimate located intensive care units (ICUs) operation theaters (OTs) were swabbed. All...
