Abstract
The aim of the study was to evaluate the distribution on hospital wards, the spectrum of infections and the pattern of antimicrobial resistance of Providencia strains identified between 01.01.2018-31.12.2020 in the samples of the patients hospitalized in the Clinical County Emergency Hospital of Brasov. 380 strains of Providencia species were identified in the medical and surgical wards, especially in ICU (76.84%), Internal medicine ward (5.79%) and General surgery (3.95%). More frequently, Providencia spp. were isolated from tracheobronchial secretions (35.79%), pus (22.89%) and urine (19.74%). The levels of antimicrobial resistance of Providencia strains were very high for all the tested antimicrobials.
