Hospital-acquired contagions are on the increase and are a substantial cause of clinical and financial burden for healthcare systems. While contagion control plays a major role in curtailing the spread of outbreak organisms, it is not always effective. One organism of particular concern is Acinetobacter baumannii, due to both its persistence in the hospital setting and its ability to acquire antibiotic resistance. A. baumannii has appeared as a nosocomial pathogen that displays high levels of resistance to antibiotics, and remains resilient against traditional cleaning measures with resistance to Colistin increasingly reported. Given the costs associated and magnitude with hospital acquired infections, and the rise in multidrug-resistant organisms, it is worth re-evaluating our current approaches and observing for substitutes or aides-de-camp to traditional antibiotics therapies. The aim of this study was to determine antimicrobial resistance, antibiofilm patterns and virulence factors of Acinetobacter baumannii isolates from the hospital system.
