Abstract

There was a high prevalence of ESBLs-E and MDR isolate in Addis Ababa. Most of ESBLs-E was isolated primarily in blood and urine. The highest ESBLs production was observed among K. pneumoniae. Hence, strong infection control strategies must be implemented in hospital settings of the country.
