Microbiological Evaluation of the Clinical Isolated Patients in the General Adult Intensive Care Unit

Abstract

Objective: In this study; microbiological evaluation of clinical isolates of 490 patients treated in general adult intensive care unit between 2016-2018 was aimed. Methods: Blood culture samples were evaluated in an automated blood culture system BacT / Alert 3D (bioMerieux, France). Vitek 2 Compact (BioMe´rieux, Marcyl’Etoile, France) automated bacterial identification system was used for determination of biochemical parameters and antibiograms. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) Version 23.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) was used to analyze the data. Result: In this study; non-fermentative gram negative microorganisms were found to be 10.816% (n = 53). Pseudomonas aeroginosa were detected in 49 patients (10%). Especially in 2018, the total number of microorganisms was found to be higher than the other years, while P. aeroginosa strain (n = 41) increased significantly. The major pathogens were P. aeroginosa, Non-Fermentative Gr (-) bacteria, Klepsiella spp., Escherichia coli, Candida spp., Proteus spp., Pseudomonas spp. was determined. Conclusion: In this study; microorganism distribution of patients hospitalized in intensive care unit was determined. Investigating the resistance status of microorganisms will be useful in regulating treatment protocols and preventing resistant pathogenic microorganisms.
