Typhoid diagnosis and associated prevailing drug resistance in Mbale city, Uganda

2024-02-26

Abstract excerpt

Background The study aimed at determining the predictive values of Widal’s test against culture and the antimicrobial sensitivity profile of Salmonella typhi ( S. typhi ) isolates from patients attending private health facilities in Mbale city, Uganda. This was to provide evidence-based information to policy implementers for guideline enforcement. Methods This was a quantitative cross-sectional study in which 17...
