Abstract

Background: Prevalence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection is very common among indoor burn patients. Metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) produced by clinical isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa has increased considerably in recent years. This may cause phenotypic resistance to virtually all clinically available β lactams. The drug resistance due to MBL has a potential for rapid spread to other micro organisms. Method: A prospective study was conducted over a period of 8 months. All the Pseudomonas aeruginosa were isolated from infected burn wounds of patients admitted in burn ward.
