Materials and Methods Retrospective study conducted in Intensive Care Unit of Al-Moalmeen Hospital. Analysis conducted on 54 cases admitted to ICU in six months. The data included: Age, Diagnosis, Vital signs, Treatment plan, and the outcome. APACHE Score was used to measure disease severity. Inclusion criteria: Patients with gram-negative bacteria infection from sputum, blood, and urine cultures. Exclusion criteria: Patients with Glasgow coma scale less than 9, End-stage metastatic malignant cancer patients, patients with APACHE II score more than 34, ventilated patients upon admission. The data analyzed by performing statistics on “Graph Pad Prism”. Results: Total 54 cases showed 62-gram negative bacteria cultures; 9 blood, 28 urine and 15 sputum cultures, also 10 swabs. These 62-cultures showed 31 cases E-coli, 14 cases klebsiella, 11 pseudomonas, and 6 cases Acinetobacter. 40 out 62 microorganisms treated with monotherapy including (Meronem/Forutm/Maixpime/Rocephin/Tazocin). 22 out 62 microorganisms treated with combined therapy including (Meropenem/Tavanic, Meronem/Ciprofloxacin, Meronem/Tigacylcine, Maxipime / Tavanic, Colistin/Gentamycin, and Ciprofloxacin /Amikin). Treatment with antibiotics monotherapy and combined therapy, empirical and targeted antibiotics therapy and Meronem antibiotic monotherapy and combined therapy didn’t show significant differences regarding mortality and survival rates.
