Abstract

Abstract Background: S. aureus is one of the most isolated bacterial pathogens around the world and its resistance rate among antibiotics is constantly changing. Currently, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) against S. aureus is only investigated in the top mostly used antibiotics. This study aimed to evaluate the AMRprofile of S. Aureus for antibiotics in the last six years (2019 to 2024). Material and Methods: A retrospective analysis was undertaken using data from 2019 to 2024 in Turkey. S. aureus bacterial isolates were included for all availableantibiotics data within these years. Descriptive statistics and Chi square X 2 test were performed using SPSS. Results: Therewas a significant (pS. aureus . Conclusion: Differing patterns of resistance were observed in these antibiotics though some of them reveal alarming rates of increase. The results underscore the value of regular susceptibility testing and careful selection of antibiotics to be used to handle S. aureus infections.
