Prevalence of Wound Infections; Evaluation of its Growth Frequency and Antibiotic Resistance Pattern in Chennai Population
Abstract: The prevalence of common wound infection occurrences in patients of selected population and evaluating the growth frequency including the infection rate followed by its antibiotic resistance pattern in Chennai population. Objective: The design of the study is to identify the cause of the common wound infection including post operative infection and identifying the bacteria analysing its frequency and its growth among Chennai population and also evaluating the antibiotic drug resistance pattern with the clinical correlation among the treatment available with the healthcare facilities. Materials and Methods: The samples were collected from the selected population with consent, cultured and differentiated based on morphological and interpretation based on biochemical tests. The frequency of the isolate causing infection and their antibiotic resistance were calculated using SPSS (version 21) at a significant level of P - value
