Lay abstract Bacterial infections and microbial resistance are becoming the most challenging problems associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The emergence of antibiotic resistance is a growing concern for people of all ages and settings. This study aimed to determine the antimicrobial resistance patterns of microorganism from urine, blood and wound swabs and their distribution by age, sex and location. The study showed that bacterial isolates from urine and blood were more resistant than isolates from wound infections. Furthermore, bacterial isolates from neonates were resistant to antimicrobial agents used. Bacterial isolates from inpatients were more statistically significant to antimicrobial agents than those from outpatients. There was resistance of bacteria Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis and Proteus species from all three specimen sources to imipenem, ciprofloxacin, and ampicillin, and the effect of age, sex and location on antibiotic resistance was also significant.
