Abstract
Methods: In this descriptive study, 244 hemodialysis patients (under hemodialysis in Kamkar Hospital in Qom), were included. Patients’ information were collected using a questionnaire, then, nasal swabs were taken from the depth of the anterior nasal vestibule and were cultured. To perform antibiogram, discs of vancomycin, erythromycin, clindamycin, cefazolin, cotrimoxazole, doxycycline, rifampin, methicillin, and imipenem, were used.
