Abstract
A total 201 discharge from ear (pus) were collected from different patients. The study was carried out in patients and out patients in the hospital. The specific objective of this study was to do microbiological study of Chronic supperative otitis media. The results of this study showed, the commonest clinical isolate was P.aeruginosa (52%) followed Staphylococcus aureus (40%),E.coli (6%),Proteus(2%) and Aspergillus Niger (4%) in which male were (56%) and females were (44%). Widespread use of antibiotics has precipitated emergence of multiple resistance strains of bacteria. Changes in the microbiological flora following the advent of sophisticated synthetic antibiotics increase the relevance of reappraisal of modern day flora of CSOM and their invitro antibiotic sensitivity pattern is very important for clinicians to plan a general outline of treatment fora patient with discharging ear. Among the bacteria responsible for CSOM, Pseudomonas aeruginosa has been particularly blamed fir deep-seated and progressive destruction of middle ear and mastoid structures.
