ANTIBIOGRAM OF PUS SAMPLE COLLECTED FROM UTERINE HERNIA OF A DOE WITH ABORTION VIS-A-VIS EMERGING HUMAN INCIDENCES: A CASE STUDY
Abstract
Aim: The present article reports on the bacteriological examination and antibiotic sensitivity test of pus sample collected from uterus of a doe suffering from uterine hernia.
Materials and Methods: The patient’s sample was subjected to microbiological analysis and antibiotic sensitivity tests.
Results: The infecting bacterium was susceptible to the MIC of broad-spectrum antibiotics.
Discussion: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) are of particular concern as the common causes of nosocomial systemic and other infections in hospitalized patients. In the United States, approximately 60% of staphylococcal infections in the intensive care unit are now caused by MRSA, and percentages continue to rise. Outbreaks of hospital-acquired MRSA (HA-MRSA) are typically the result of clonal spread by MRSA being transferred from patient to patient, frequently using healthcare personnel as intermediaries. HA-MRSA strains are generally multidrug resistant. Vancomycin is the standard treatment for serious MRSA infections, but a few cases of vancomycin-resistant S. aureus (VRSA) have recently emerged in the United States. Community-acquired MRSA (CA-MRSA) is also increasing. Soft tissue infections are the most frequent presentations of CA-MRSA, but life-threatening invasive infections occur as well, including necrotizing pneumonia.
Conclusion: The present study indicated that the Staphylococcus spp. isolated from pus sample was sensitive to broad-spectrum antibiotics which were recommended for application in mixed preparations in divided doses.
