| Summary, etc. | <br/>Abstract:<br/><br/>Background: Carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria (CR-GNB) colonization pose a significant risk for endogenous skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs) associated with high morbidity and mortality, owing to limited antimicrobial therapeutic options. However, there is limited data on CR-GNB colonizing skin and soft tissue patients admitted at BMC which necessitate the aims to provide insight on the prevalence, factor associated with CR-GNB colonizing patients with SSTIs admitted at Bugando Medical Centre (BMC), Mwanza, Tanzania.<br/><br/>Methods. A cross-sectional study was conducted on 202 patients with SSTIs at BMC, involving rectal swabs and stool samples. Isolated bacteria were identified using biochemical tests, including disk diffusion testing for CR-GNB screening and combined disk tests for phenotypic confirmation. Data was analyzed using STATA version 15.0.<br/><br/>Results: A total of 202 patients with SSTIs with median age of 30 [18-49] years admitted at BMC were enrolled in this study. The majority of patients were males 129 (63.8%). The prevalence of rectal colonization with 3GC-R-GNB was 95.53% (n=193) with a total of 247 bacterial species detected. Predominantly, E. coli 63.97%% (158/247) and K. pneumoniae 23.48% (58/247) were identified. The prevalence of patients with SSTIs colonized with ESBL-PE phenotypes was 76.24% (154/202) while the proportion of CRGNB phenotypes colonization was 12.96% (32/247).<br/><br/>Conclusion: The study found 14.85% CR-GNB colonizing patients with SSTIs admitted at BMC, emphasizing the need for enhanced infection prevention and control measures to prevent and minimize subsequent endogenous MDR – SSTIs by CR-GNB.<br/><br/> |
