Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to analyze local antibiograms from a tertiary care center to track antimicrobial resistance (AMR) trends and create baseline data for ongoing monitoring.
- A review of data from King Fahad Medical City (2010-2015) revealed that most isolates were gram-negative, with Escherichia coli being the most common, and a notable increase in antibiotic-resistant variants over time.
- While the susceptibility of Streptococcus pneumoniae to penicillin improved significantly, the rise in resistance among gram-negative bacteria highlights the need for better antimicrobial stewardship efforts.
