Hospitalized patients with wounds face an increased risk of infection with multi-drug-resistant nosocomial bacteria. In this study, samples from almost 10,000 patients from big hospitals in Czech Republic with infected wounds were analyzed for the presence of bacterial pathogens. In 7693 patients (78.8%), bacterial etiological agents were identified. Members of the  Enterobacterales  (37.1%) and  Staphyloccus aureus  (21.1%) were the most prevalent pathogens.  Staphyloccus aureus  showed methicillin resistance in 8.6%. Almost half of the  Klebsiella pneumoniae  isolates were ESBL-positive and 25.6% of the  Enterobacter  spp. isolates were AmpC-positive. The third most prevalent  Pseudomonas aeruginosa  showed resistance to 19–32% of the antipseudomonal antibiotics tested. Based on the results, amoxicillin/clavulanic acid, ampicillin/sulbactam or piperacillin/tazobactam combined with gentamicin can be recommended for antibiotic treatment of infected wounds. Once the etiological agent is identified, the therapy should be adjusted according to the species and its resistance.
