Résumé
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a common metabolic disorder that significantly affects public health. Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is one of the serious complications of diabetes. DFU has a wide spectrum of bacterial isolates comprising Gram-positive, Gram-negative, aerobic bacteria and anaerobes. In the last two decades there has been an increase in the multidrug-resistant isolates (MDR). This cross-sectional prospective observational study was conducted in southern Jordan among patients with DFU. The included variables are sociodemographic and clinical information. Isolates from swab culture of ulcers and antimicrobial susceptibility pattern are also recorded. A total of 64 diabetic patients with DFU were included in this study. Most patients included in the study were males with male-to-female ratio of (2.2:1). The mean age was 54 years (SD ± 10.7). The mean duration of DM was 16.4 years (SD ± 7.5) and the mean HbA1c was 9.9% (SD ± 2.1). Neuropathy and anemia were noted in 72% and 44% of patients, respectively. The most frequent bacterial isolates were gram negative bacteria accounts for 29 isolates (45.3%). About 37.5% (24) of bacterial isolates showed MDR pattern. Previous antibiotic use in the last 30 days showed significant association with MDR bacteria (p-value <0.05). Previous history of amputations, presence of neuropathy, renal impairment, retinopathy, presence of anemia, limited joint mobility and presence of foot deformity were significantly associated with Wagner's grade ≥ three. Many factors affect and increase the risk of having high grade diabetic foot ulcer. The most frequent bacterial isolates from diabetic foot ulcers were gram negative bacteria. High rates of MDR in this study reflect the loose implementation of regulations in Jordan regarding antibiotics dispensing.

Background
UNASSIGNED
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a common metabolic disorder that significantly affects public health. Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is one of the serious complications of diabetes. DFU has a wide spectrum of bacterial isolates comprising Gram-positive, Gram-negative, aerobic bacteria and anaerobes. In the last two decades there has been an increase in the multidrug-resistant isolates (MDR).

Results
UNASSIGNED
A total of 64 diabetic patients with DFU were included in this study. Most patients included in the study were males with male-to-female ratio of (2.2:1). The mean age was 54 years (SD ± 10.7). The mean duration of DM was 16.4 years (SD ± 7.5) and the mean HbA1c was 9.9% (SD ± 2.1). Neuropathy and anemia were noted in 72% and 44% of patients, respectively. The most frequent bacterial isolates were gram negative bacteria accounts for 29 isolates (45.3%). About 37.5% (24) of bacterial isolates showed MDR pattern. Previous antibiotic use in the last 30 days showed significant association with MDR bacteria (p-value <0.05). Previous history of amputations, presence of neuropathy, renal impairment, retinopathy, presence of anemia, limited joint mobility and presence of foot deformity were significantly associated with Wagner's grade ≥ three.
Conclusion
UNASSIGNED
Many factors affect and increase the risk of having high grade diabetic foot ulcer. The most frequent bacterial isolates from diabetic foot ulcers were gram negative bacteria. High rates of MDR in this study reflect the loose implementation of regulations in Jordan regarding antibiotics dispensing.
