Pyoderma is the commonest skin infection in children. The awareness about regional pattern of isolates, their antibiotic sensitivity and resistance pattern is of utmost importance in treating them. Aims of the study are 1) To study the bacteriological profile of pyoderma in children 2) To assess the antibiotic sensitivity pattern. 3) To determine the resistance pattern. Cases of primary and secondary pyoderma in paediatric age group attending Dermatology outpatient department in a tertiary care teaching hospital over a period of one year were enrolled in this study. Swabs were taken, identification test, antimicrobial sensitivity tests to rule out resistant strains were done. | A study on bacteriological profile of skin infections and antimicrobial susceptibility of causative organisms among children in a Tertiary care hospital
