摘要
The increasing complexity of wound care in pediatric patients along with delay in the initiation of treatment predisposes these patients to many complications such as pressure ulcers, non-healing surgical wounds and skin damage. A retrospective study was conducted over a period of five years to gain insight into the etiology of pediatric wound infection. A total of 2819 wound culture positive cases were included. Most samples were from the burn ward (30.15%) followed by the general surgery ward (20.46%). Overall, the most common isolate was Staphylococcus aureus (39.73%) followed by Pseudomonas spp (19.12%). The prevalence of MRSA (Methicillin resistant S. aureus), CRE (Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae), CRP (Carbapenem resistant Pseudomonas), CRAB (Carbapenem resistant Acinetobacter baumannii) was 47.3%, 62.5%, 70.5%, 96.4%, respectively. The high degree of resistance in children highlights the importance of regular surveillance for identification of common pathogens and optimization of antimicrobial treatment for multidrug resistant organisms.
