Abstract

In Mexico, antimicrobial resistance, a public health problem, is difficult to address because of the absence of a regulatory body to effectively control the use and sale of antimicrobials; the low surveillance of prescription and self-medication; and the lack of information. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of resistance to antibiotics in bacteria isolated from hospital clinical samples in northwest Mexico. This study consisted of collecting the information from the logs of the cultures that were carried out in the Microbiology area of ​​the Clinical Analysis Laboratory and its resistance to antibiotics, from December 2016 to January 2018, in Hospital in Northwest Mexico. Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Staphylococcus aureus infections were the most common among patients from all care services. Klebsiella pneumonia Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterobacter cloacae, S. aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, and E. coli showed antibiotic resistance up to 90 and 100%. Benzylpenicillin was the antibiotic to which a high resistance was observed in the intensive care unit service (100%). High bacterial resistance to antibiotics was found from December 2016 to January 2018 in the present study and, in comparison with few Mexican studies, it has remained unchanged.
