Bacterial profile, antimicrobial susceptibility patterns, and associated factors of community-acquired pneumonia among adult patients in Gondar, Northwest Ethiopia: A cross-sectional study

This study found a high prevalence of bacteria-caused community-acquired pneumonia among adults and low susceptibility to ampicillin, tetracyclines, and amoxicillin-clavulanic acid. Therefore, culture-based bacterial identification and local antibiotic susceptibility testing should be performed regularly. Additionally, new insights into vaccine coverage against highly multi-drug resistant bacteria, particularly K. pneumoniae, are necessary.
