Abstract
Persistent suppurative otitis media (CSOM) is a persistent inflammation of the middle ear and mastoid cavity that persists for more than two weeks. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common pathogen that causes CSOM. One of the best medications for treating Pseudomonas infections is carbapenem. The development of bacteria resistant to carbapenems is frequently linked to metallo-ß lactamases. In an effort to stop and propagate resistance, identifying the strains that create MBLs can help guarantee that patients receive the best therapy possible.
