Prospective analysis identified prevalent bacteria and their antibiotic sensitivity in CSOM patients, indicating critical resistance trends.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa was the most prevalent isolate in patients with chronic suppurative otitis media.
S. aureus showed high sensitivity to linezolid (82%) and vancomycin (78%) during the antibiotic susceptibility testing.
The study collected samples from 118 individuals, with 85% demonstrating bacterial growth following culture.
Carbapenems exhibited 52%-100% susceptibility against gram-negative bacterial isolates, emphasizing effective treatment options.

Khan et al. (2024) studied this question.
