Abstract: The study of antibiotic resistance phenotypes of 105 Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains isolated from inpatients and outpatients. The resistance profile on antibiotic classes reflects the multidrug-resistance of the bacteria: 56,19% of the strains are resistant to fluororquinolones and aminoglycosides; 54,28% are ceftazidime-resistant strains; 47,61 are crabapenem resistant; 46,66 % showed resistance to piperacilin-tazobactam and colistin – resistance.
Keywords: Pseudomonas aeruginosa, resistance phenotypes
