Background and Objectives: Pus infection is very critical infection and Bacteriological culture is very essential investigation in such patient in tertiary care hospital. Study of different bacterial isolates from pus and its antibiotic sensitivity pattern is very useful guide to clinicians for starting empirical treatment. Methods: The study was carried out from Jan 2014 to December 2014 in Microbiology dept. at Sir T Hospital Bhavnagar. Total 289 positive pus samples were cultured by conventional methods and antibiotic susceptibility testing was done by Kirby Bauer disc diffusion method as per CLSI guidelines. Result: Total 289 different bacterial species isolated from pus infection. Amongst Gram negative bacteria most common isolates were E. coli 68(24%) and Klebsiella spp. 93(32%) and Pseudomonas sp. 72 (25%). Amongst Gram positive bacteria most common isolates were Staphylococcus aureus 54(19%). These isolates were sensitive to Vancomycin, Linezolid, 3rd generation Cephalosporin group, Meropenam and Piperacillin-Tazobactum. Conclusion: Most common bacterial isolates from Wound infection were S. aureus, E. coli, Pseudomonas sp. and Klebsiella sp. The antibiotics that helpful to treat these infections are Vancomycin, Meropenam and Piperacillin- Tazobactum.
