| Abstract: | Acinetobacter spp. is an important nosocomial pathogen especially in intensive care settings and is resistant to commonly available antimicrobial agents. Active surveillance is therefore necessary in order to determine appropriate antibiotic for the treatment. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence and antibiogram of Acenatobactor spp. isolated in patients attending the tertiary care hospital in Chhattisgarh. It is a prospective study conducted in the Department of Microbiology, Shri shankaracharya Hospital Bhilai Chhattisgarh. Acinetobacter from various clinical samples were included in this study during eight months period from October 2021 to May 2022.The isolates were identified using conventional and automated methods (Vitek2 COMPACT, bioMérieux) and the susceptibility was done using the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method. During the study period, a total of 127 Acinetobacter spp. were isolated from various clinical specimens, out of which 73(57.48%) isolation was from ICUs. Highest isolation was observed from pus samples 35 (27.55%) and endotracheal tube aspirates 35(27.55%) followed by blood 25 (19.68%) and urine and sputum samples 11 (8.66%). 73.47% isolates were MDR (MultidrugResistant), however they remained susceptible to colistin127(100%) and tetracycline88 (70.07%). It is necessary to regularly monitor the resistance phenotypes of Acinetobacter. Enhanced surveillance of MDR Acinetobacter is critical for guiding the appropriate use of antibiotics and reducing the incidence of hospital acquired infection.
