Abstract: Antibiotic resistance patterns are constantly changing due to superbugs. Continuous monitoring of antibiotic Resistance and Susceptibility testing is required prior to prescribing antibiotics. Globally, many deaths are reported due to antimicrobial resistance. If people not change the way of using the antibiotics the newer antibiotics will face the same resistance problem after few years. This study was conducted in tertiary care teaching hospital in Eastern Gujarat to identify most common resistance and sensitive bacteria, the resistance pattern of bacteria to various antibiotic, and most resistant bacterial species. Where it showed that gram - negative infections are increasing. In which, most prominent suspected bacteria are E. coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella spp., and Klebsiella pneumoniae. And during the study we found that total 38 different antibiotics are showing/ forming resistance towards suspected bacteria.
