Description
Summary:A preliminary study was conducted on the sensitivity pattern of microorganisms against antibiotics at the intensive care unit of Fatmawati Hospital Jakarta. Retrospective, secondary data were collected on results of antibiotics sensitivity tests and kind of microorganisms of 205 patients during the years 2001 - 2002. Pathogenic species found were Pseudomonas sp. Klebsiella sp. Escherichia coli, Streptococcus haemolyticus, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus aureus. The pattern of resistance showed that pathogenic microorganisms were most resistant agains ampicillin, amoxycillin, penicillin G, tetracycline and chloramphenicol. The highest sensitivity levels were shown by fosmicin, amikacin, ceftriaxone to Pseudomonas sp. netilmicin, amikacin,ceftriaxone to Klebsiella sp. ceftriaxone, amikacin, ceftizoxime to Escherichia coli.
