Surgical patients with purulent-inflammatory diseases make up 35-45%, postoperative purulent complications occur in 24-30% of cases. Surgical wound infections account for up to 15% of the total number of nosocomial infections. Mortality in surgical purulent infection is from 40 to 75%. We studied 103 strains of UPM isolated from wounds in patients undergoing treatment in the surgical department of the KNP KOR Kyiv Regional Clinical Hospital. Among this group of microorganisms were representatives of the Enterobacteriaceae – 34.9% family. Non-fermenting gramnegative bacteria accounted for 15.5% of all selected strains. The leading causative agents of wound infections in patients in the surgical department of the KNP KOR Kyiv Regional Clinical Hospital are representatives of the Enterobacteriaceae family – 34.9%. The most common pathogen was E. coli (16.5%). The most active antibiotic for enterobacteria was netilmicin. With cephalosporin antibiotics, the most active cefotaxime is 47.2±8.3%. It was found that 52.8±8.3% of strains of enterobacteria isolated from wounds in surgical patients were betalactamase producers, 25.0±7.2% showed combined phenotypes. Cephalosporinases were isolated from beta-lactamases: ESβL – 44.4±8.3% of strains, and AmpC – 11.1±5.2% of producer strains. 25.0±7.2% of the strains were producers of Klebsiella pneumonia carbapenemases (KPC). Beta-lactamase producers were K. pneumoniae strains (75%). ESβL producers showed resistance to cephalosporin antibiotics, fluoroquinolones, however, they remained sensitive to netilmicin (75.0±15.3%) and meropenem (50±17.1%). The carbapenemase producing strains were resistant to ampicillin, amikacin, fluoroquinolones, ceftazidime, carbapenem. Resistance to all antibiotic groups was detected in the strain that was the carrier of the combined phenotype ESβL + AmpC + KRS.
