ABSTRACT

Background the Aim of the study was diagnosis of metastatic infection and Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing (AST) of microorganism that isolated from hemodialysis patients. Method- This study was conducted in December (2022) to April (2023), in Karbala city. where the study conducted on one hundred (100) participants including 70 patients that undergoing hemodialysis (40 males,30 female), 30 control (12 males ,18 female), All of the groups' ages were included in this study, blood take from patient via the central venous catheter and was transferred to a blood culture bottle for cultivating. Result-85.7% from Staphylococcus epidermidis resistant to Ammoxillin and 14.3% of Staphylococcus epidermidis resistant and to, cefotaxime, ceftriaxone, Meropinime, clindamycin, 100%Staph. aureus resistant to Ammoxillin 80% resistant to Ceftriaxone, 60 %resistant to gentamycin, 40%resistant to cefotaxime, 20% resistant to, Meropenem, 80% of Staphylococcus hominis resistant to Ammoxillin ,60%, resistant to gentamycin, ceftriaxone 40% resistant to cefotaxime, 20% resistant to piperacillin/Tazobactam, 100% E. coli resistant to Cefotaxime, Ammoxillin 66.7% resistant to Ceftriaxone, clindamycin, 33.3% resistant to Gentamycin. Conclusion All gram positive bacterial species that isolated from hemodialysis patient resistant to amoxicillin and sensitive to Imiepeneme, while 100% E coli are resistant to amoxicillin and cefotaxime and sensitive to piperacillin/Tazobactam.
