“…In this study, we found 26% of patients with UTI were positive for S. haemolyticus, which is consistent with the previous findings [9]. Surprisingly, a study conducted by Lerbech et al in Ghana reported that S. haemolyticus was the predominant pathogen (75%) in human urine collected from patients with UTI; whereas, others in India found a much lower incidence rate of S. haemolyticus in patients with UTI ranging from 15-18% [24,25,26,27]. The variation in the incidence rate of S. haemolyticus might be due to the factors influencing the variability of collected samples, lack of species identification opportunity in most laboratories, time, antibiotic use, and lack of advanced technologies in most developing countries like Bangladesh.…”

“…They suggest genetic evidence that S. haemolyticus shares a shared antimicrobial resistance gene pool with S. epidermidis [9]. On the other hand, in the study among the tested antibiotics, vancomycin was found to be most effective for treating UTI patients against S. haemolyticus [24,25,38,39]. In our study, S. haemolyticus was 100% sensitive to vancomycin followed by azithromycin (80.76%), amikacin (84.61%), gentamycin (69.23%), levofloxacin (73.08%), ceftriaxone (80.76%) and doxycycline (61.54%), respectively.…”

“…In general, the species most commonly found in nosocomial infections is S. epidermidis, followed by S. haemolyticus, S. hominis, and S. capitis [53] [59] [60].…”
