“…These findings are consistent with other studies. 1,3,8,9,11,[13][14][15][16][17][18] Maximum sensitivity (93.67%) to nitrofurantoin was observed in this study, which is similar to the previous studies. 6,7,15 As this drug is sparsely used in the outpatients' department for the treatment of uncomplicated lower urinary tract infections as it does not achieve bloodstream therapeutic concentrations and is used for complicated cystitis only.…”

Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a significant species and a common dweller in the guts of humans and animals causing urinary tract infections, wound infection, otitis media, bloodstream infections, and other complications in humans. Worldwide resistance to antimicrobials is a serious public health problem. β-lactamases production by E. coli is responsible for resistance to frequently used beta-lactam antibiotics. 1) To determine antibiotic susceptibility pattern of Escherichia coli isolated from pus and urine samples 2) To determine ESBL producing Escherichia coli and its antibiotic susceptibility pattern. Retrospective study of E. coli isolates from urine and pus samples was performed by collecting data from bacteriology registers. Gender, age details of patients, number of E. coli isolates, and their antimicrobial susceptibility profiles were collected from the records. Out of 747 samples 102 E. coli were isolated and among them 60 (59%) were ESBL producers. Male preponderance was seen i.e. 59 (57.84%) and majority 68 (66.66%) were isolated from the age group of <18 years. E. coli showed maximum sensitivity to imipenem 88 (86.27%), followed by piperacillin-tazobactam 84 (82.35%), aminoglycoside group 76 (74.5%) and maximum resistance was seen to penicillin groups 92 (90.19%), followed by cephalosporins 71 (69.6%). Urinary isolates showed maximum sensitivity to nitrofurantoin (93.67%). ESBL producers showed resistance to ciprofloxacin 47 (78%). This study helps in the periodic formulation of regional antimicrobial policies and also giving continuous information to the clinicians with respect to the sensitivity pattern along with ESBL production which can help to avert further drug resistance.

“…Using sterile forceps, the antibiotic disc of the different antibiotics was aseptically put on the dried, inoculated agar surface and incubated for 18 hours at 37 °C. Based on the EUCAST, 2021 criteria, inhibition zones were classified as resistant, moderate, or susceptible [18], MDR was assessed as resistance to at least three antimicrobial classes.…”

This study sought to ascertain the prevalence of multidrug resistant strains among E. coli isolates responsible for urinary tract infections (UTIs) that were resistant to frequently used antimicrobial drugs. Methods: Thirty (30) urine samples were collected from Federal Medical Center (FMC) patients who may have had UTIs in Medical Center Birnin Kebbi. Regular biochemical tests were used to identify all isolates, and testing for antibiotic susceptibility were performed using disc diffusion method. Results: The majority of the isolates were aztreonam and cefotaxime resistant. Cefotaxime and aztreonam resistance rates overall were 81% and 82%, respectively. Almost all isolates were susceptible to ciprofloxacin and tigecycline, with respective resistance rates of 17% and 10%. One in seventeen isolates of E. coli were multidrug resistance (MDR). Conclusion:According to our findings, only a small percentage of the E. coli isolates included in this investigation were MDR. It is strongly advised that antibiotic prescriptions be monitored in accordance with the recommendations. Both in clinical settings and in the population at large, antibiotic use should be closely monitored. In order to reduce infections, infection prevention and control are essential in all healthcare settings.
