<p>Antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of Gram-negative bacterial isolates from sputum c

84 Gram-negative bacterial isolates from adult patients with presumptive tuberculosis at HFCSH in eastern Ethiopia. The dataset records antimicrobial susceptibility patterns for these isolates, collected in 2024. It was authored by Negesso Gebre and shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Analyze antibiotic resistance prevalence based on susceptibility patterns mentioned in the description
• Study co-infections in tuberculosis-negative patients based on sputum culture isolates
• Benchmark local antimicrobial resistance against global patterns based on the geographic and temporal scope
• Inform empirical antibiotic treatment guidelines based on the susceptibility data

Strengths

• Data is focused on a specific patient cohort (84 adult patients with presumptive TB) from a defined location and time.
• The dataset is openly licensed (CC-BY-4.0), facilitating reuse and analysis.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for statistical modeling.
• Data may reflect geographic and temporal bias inherent to a single hospital study in 2024.
