“…All the isolates of S. aureus were sensitive to vancomycin as comparable with Sujatha et al, (2016). The ESBL producing Enterobacteriaceae in our study was 65.8% of which K. pneumoniae (53%) and E. coli was (88%), which is higher than a recent study done by Subha and Meerah Srinivasagam (2018) whose ESBL detection rate was 42.10% of which E. coli were 23.61% and K. pneumoniae 25%. According to a study done in Nepal (Shrestha et al, 2011), prevalence of ESBL was much lower at 18%.…”

“…In the present study, members of Enterobacterales (n=36; 70.58%) were more frequently isolated than non-Enterobacterales (n=15; 29.41%) which is similar to a study from South India. 28 The Enterobacterales member showed resistance to ampicillin (29/36; 80.5%), ciprofloxacin (18/36; 50%) followed by ceftriaxone (15/36; 41.6%), gentamicin (10/36; 27.7%), and amikacin, meropenem (6/36; 16.6%) each respectively. In a study from Chennai, <40% susceptibility for ampicillin and <50% susceptibility for ciprofloxacin was reported.…”
