Results: The most common isolated microbacteria as the etiologic agent of wound infection were Pseudomonas (35.5%), Klebsiella (14.5%) and Staphylococcus aureus (8.2%). On evaluation for drug sensitivity of the microbacteria, Ciprofloxacin was found to be the most effective drug against Pseudomonas and Klebsiella and Vancomycin the most effective one for Staphylococcus aureus.
