Antimicrobial Resistance of Acinetobacter Species and Pseudomonas Species in a Tertiary Care Center in Gandaki Province, Nepal
The study underscores alarming levels of antimicrobial resistance in Acinetobacter species and Pseudomonas species. Acinetobacter species demonstrated higher resistance to most antibiotics compared to Pseudomonas species. The variation in resistance patterns across sample types highlights the need of infection site and pathogen-specific antibiotic stewardship strategies.
