Abstract:
Aim: Study of Imepenam resistance rate among selected gram negative bacilli, especially Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. 
Materials and Methods: Specific Gram Negative Bacilli isolated from different clinical samples, received during a period of five years from January 2008 to December 2012 were retrospectively analyzed for Imepenam Resistance and their antibiotic sensitivity pattern. 
Results: Among the isolates from different clinical samples there were 3411 isolates of E.coli. Conclusion: Our study shows that the Frequency of Imepenam Resistance is greater among Psedomonas than E.coli and Klebsiella.
