BACTERIAL INFECTION AND ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE IN PATIENTS WITH HUMAN IMMUNODEFICIENCY VIRUS PRESENTING LOWER RESPIRATORY TRACT INFECTION IN NIGERIA

2021-09-14

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Lower Respiratory Tract Infection (LRTI) is associated with mortality and prolonged antibiotics use among HIV/AIDS patients. Sputum samples were collected from 134 HIV/AIDS patients with LRTI and productive cough, visiting University of Abuja Teaching Hospital, Nigeria, to determine the bacterial aetiologies and antibiotic resistance profile. Adequate for culture sputum samples were observed in o...
