Article Synopsis
- - The study focused on aminoglycoside-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from patients in Ardabil hospitals, finding that 48% of the isolates were resistant, with a significant portion also showing multidrug resistance (MDR).
- - Testing revealed that all resistant strains could form biofilms and contained several genes related to aminoglycoside resistance, with a high prevalence of specific resistance genes identified.
- - The research highlights a concerning trend of increasing resistance in P. aeruginosa, suggesting an urgent need for improved treatment strategies to combat these infections.
Article Synopsis
- Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a frequent cause of hospital infections, is showing increasing resistance to colistin, a key treatment option, complicating infection management.
- The study found a 9% rate of colistin resistance in clinical isolates, all of which were biofilm producers and exhibited specific genetic traits related to resistance mechanisms.
- The results emphasize the need for careful use of colistin to mitigate further resistance development among these bacterial strains in Ardabil hospitals.
