Staphylococcus aureus infections in patients from 2019–2021 at Peltier hospital of Djibouti

Abstract

Staphylococcus aureus is a major pathogen for humans who are causing infections of the skin, lungs and sepsis. These infections can be treated with appropriate antibiotics. Their selection is mainly based on culture and sensitivity. Moreover, the problem of antimicrobial resistance has grown around the world because of their irrational prescriptions. The judicious use of antibiotics will reduce the multidrug resistance to antibiotics and thereby improve patient management and reduce the morbidity and mortality. Therefore, the objective of this prospective study is to evaluate the sensitivity of Staphylococcus aureus strains that are isolated from different pathological products at Peltier hospital in Djibouti. This study aims to provide data on the selection of antibiotics which are suitable for the treatment of diseases caused by S. aureus.
