Abstract
The aim of this study is to evaluate the resistance profile in Uropathogenic Staphylococci bacteria isolated from medical analysis laboratories in Casablanca, Morocco.This study was a retrospective cross-sectional study in which a total of 4374 patients visited medicals analysis laboratories, for urinalysis tests from 01 January 2017 to 30 December 2020. The culture was performed according to the usual techniques and the antibiogram was done according to the recommendations of the Antibiogram Committee of the French Society of Microbiology. The statistical analysis was performed using Microsoft Excel (Microsoft 2016).
During our study, we reported 18% of UTI, UTI was more frequent in females 483 (63%) than male 289(37%). the prevalence of Uropathogenic Staphylococci bacteria was 37,61%. Coagulase-Negative Staphylococcal (CoNS) was more prevalent (92,68%). S. saprophyticus was the most frequently isolated CoNS (39,47%). S. aureus species were also isolated (7,32%). Methicillin resistance S. aureus (MRSA) was observed in 66 % of S. aureus isolates. All S. aureus isolates were susceptible to aminoglycosides, quinolones, erythromycin, linezolid, cotrimoxazole and vancomycin. Also, S. saprophyticus isolates were highly resistant to Fusidic acid (60%), However, 66,66 % of the S. heomolyticus isolates were resistant to kanamycin, Tobramycin. For S. heomolyticus, S. Hominis and S. warneri, we also demonstrated 100% sensitivity to Linezolid, cotrimoxazole and vancomycin.
The established resistance accompanied by high-rate percentage methicillin resistance requires careful consideration to antimicrobial therapy and continued antimicrobial resistance surveillance.
