Abstract

Aim

The study aimed to evaluate the bacterial and fungal profiles in Otitis Media (OM), Acute Otitis Media (AOM), and Chronic Otitis Media (COM) and the sensitivity patterns to antibiotics available in our hospital settings.

Materials and Methods

A total of 150 clinically diagnosed cases of OM (AOM or COM) with ear discharge were enrolled. Swabs were cultured for microbial flora. Drug susceptibility testing was conducted using the Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method.

Results

The most common bacteria isolated in AOM was Streptococcus spp., and in COM it was Staphylococcus aureus. Among fungal isolates, Candida albicans dominate. The antimicrobial profile of the organisms revealed maximum sensitivity to Fluoroquinolones.

Conclusions

Correct diagnosis and precise antibiotic prescription reduce the load of antibiotic resistance.
