| Abstract: | Abstract Diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) and infection (DFI) are a major diabetes related problem around the world due to the high prevalence of diabetes in the population. Broad-spectrum antibiotic regimens can involve in antibiotic resistance and limit future treatment options. So, to minimize the becoming known of bacterial resistance. There is a necessity to gain knowledge about the microbiological profile and alter the antimicrobial therapy based on the results of cultures. It avoids prolonged treatments. Objective The purpose of this study represents evaluate • Susceptibility pattern of these infection in patients attending Government Cuddalore Medical College and Hospital RMMCH) • To identify the most frequent DFI pathogens within our geographical region • Determine and compare the microbiological profile and prevalence of DFI differ according to patient’s age, diabetes control and sex. We retrospectively analysed clinical data and microbiological samples collected from 300 patients with DFU treated at Government Cuddalore Medical College and Hospital (RMMCH). Method This was a retrospective study in Diabetic foot ulcer patient admitted in Government Cuddalore Medical College and Hospital (RMMCH), Chidambaram between 2019 and 2022. 300 Diabetic Foot Ulcer meet the inclusion criteria enrolled in this study. There were six antibiotics used for treating Diabetic Foot Ulcer. The common antibiotics were used for Diabetic foot ulcer Ceftriaxone, Meropenem, Ciprofloxacin, Cefepime, Piperacillin Tazobactam, and Ceftazidime. These drugs used treat Diabetic foot ulcer causing microorganism. These were the most antibiotics that comply with their dose with the guidelines. Conclusion In conclusion, diabetic foot infections (DFI) were commonly caused by polymicrobial. S. aureus and P. aeruginosa were the most common single pathogen. The proportion of anaerobic organisms was low. The antimicrobial susceptibility data suggest that Meropenem and Piperacillin-tazobactam and Ceftazidime are appropriate agents for empirical therapy. In our study, we found a higher prevalence DFI in males with age of 71 years. Prevalence of DFI higher in males than female. |
