Bacteriological and Resistance Profile of Bacteria Isolated from Pleurisy at the Teaching Hospital, Hospital of Mali

EasyChair Preprint no. 8134

Abstract

With the implementation of the Global Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance System, countries have become aware of the seriousness of antimicrobial resistance. Faced with this public health problem, it is necessary to determine the bacteriological profile of infections in order to establish the antibiotic resistance profile of bacteria. Thus, the profile and resistance of bacteria in pleurisy in Mali were determined. Samples were collected (262) from individuals aged 1 month to 90 years. Bacteria from these samples were isolated and identified using the methods recommended by the CA-SFM. Antibiotic susceptibility testing and interpretation of susceptibility results were performed by Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion and automated methods. The frequency of pleurisy was 69.80% of which thoracic surgery had 51.10% of hospitalized patients. The sex ratio was in favor of males 1.81, the average age 34.76 years and the most affected persons between 31 and 45 years. A total of 183 bacteria were identified of which Staphylococcus aureus (25.13%), Escherichia coli (20.76) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (9.83%) were the most encountered and Moellerella wisconsensis, Cedecea davisae and Cedecea neteri rare with 1% each. Staphylococcus aureus was resistant to meticillin (58.3%), enterobacteria to amoxicillin+clavulanic acid (100%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumanii to ticarcillin+clavulanic acid (100%). Amikacin was the most effective on the strains. The study showed that bacteria causing pleurisy are resistant to antimicrobials. Routine screening of patients could minimize resistance.
