Antibiotic Resistance Trends in ESKAPE Pathogens Isolated at a Health Practice and Research Hospital: A Five-Year Retrospective Study
The alarming rise in antimicrobial resistance among Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter baumannii, and Klebsiella pneumoniae is a significant concern. The high rates of antimicrobial resistance observed in ESKAPE pathogens underscore the urgent need for improvement in antimicrobial stewardship and infection prevention and control programs.
