Description

Sorina Maria Denisa Laitin and co-authors track antimicrobial resistance over one year at the largest infectious disease hospital in western Romania. Resistance drives deaths, illness, and costs worldwide, so local maps of it guide drug choice. Their 2024 study reads 2,179 positive cultures from inpatients during 2023.

Samples came from sputum, blood, urine, wounds, and other sources. Five germs led the list, among them Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli. The first showed resistance near 41.41 percent in the first quarter, the second near 35.93 percent. Two hospital germs showed multi drug resistance at alarming levels in the third quarter. Rates eased by year end, but key germs stayed hard to treat.
