Description
Introduction: Pus formation is typically caused by a bacterial infection. Surgical Site Infection (SSI) is one of the most common causes of nosocomial infections. Resistance to commonly prescribed antibiotics for pus infection is an expanding global problem. So, this study was done to determine the prevalence of pus infection and bacterial profile of organism causing pus infection. Material and Methods: All samples were processed by standard microbiological procedures including Aerobic culture, Morphology, Gram Stain, Motility, Biochemical tests and Antimicrobial susceptibility test. Results: Culture positive pus samples were found to be 90.7%. There were 43% Gram positive cocci and 57% Gram negative bacilli isolated. Klebsiella species was found to be most common. Conclusion: Increasing multidrug resistance in pus infections is an important and emerging public health problem. The empirical treatment guidelines must be adjusted accordingly.
