Title

BACTERIOLOGICAL SPECTRUM OF POST OPERATIVE WOUND INFECTIONS FOLLOWING CAESAREAN SECTION AND THEIR ANTIBIOGRAM IN A TERTIARY CARE HOSPITAL

Abstract

Abstract: Surgical site infection (SSI) is one of the most common postoperative complication and causes significant postoperative morbidity and mortality. Patients: A prospective study was carried out in a total of 200 patients operated from department of obstetrics & gynaecology. Materials and Methods: The identification of the infecting organism was done by staining, and culture and antibiotic susceptibility by Disc Diffusion method. Results: Out of 200 patients, 60 patients got infected post-operatively. Staphylococcus aureus was the most common organism isolated. One of the strains were Methicillin resistant. Drug resistance was widespread, especially in Enterobacteriaceae. Another concern in recent times is the isolation of Acinetobacter from surgical wounds. Judicious use of antibiotics along with evidence-based medicine is the need of the hour to stop the rise of these superbugs.
