<p>Multi-drug resistance patterns of bacterial isolates from sputum culture of adult patie

Eastern Ethiopia is the focus of this dataset describing multi-drug resistance patterns of bacterial isolates from sputum cultures of adult patients with Gene Xpert-negative presumptive tuberculosis at HFCSH. The dataset contains 50 records from 2024 and was authored by Negesso Gebre. It is shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Analyzing multi-drug resistance prevalence based on bacterial isolates from sputum culture
• Studying bacterial co-infections in patients with presumptive tuberculosis based on Gene Xpert-negative status
• Investigating antimicrobial resistance patterns in a specific hospital setting (HFCSH) in eastern Ethiopia

Strengths

• Dataset has a specific geographic and temporal scope: eastern Ethiopia, 2024.
• Contains data from 50 patient records, providing a focused sample size.
• Explicitly describes the patient cohort: adult patients with Gene Xpert-negative presumptive tuberculosis.

Limitations

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