Description
Ali Kutta Celik and six co-authors survey drug-resistant bacteria in intensive care units in Mogadishu, Somalia. Their 2025 study looks back over six years. It covers one tertiary hospital. ICU patients face high risk of these infections. Yet data from Somalia are scarce.
Blood, urine, and airway samples came from adults. They yielded over two thousand isolates. Three quarters were Gram-negative. Over half of them were multidrug-resistant. Rates were much the same in both Gram classes. Most of the Gram-negative ones fell in the possible extensively resistant class. Carbapenem resistance was high. It was highest in Klebsiella species. The team sets their patterns next to data from the region and the world.
