Trends of multidrug resistance of bacterial isolates among pediatric and adult patients ().

Bacterial isolates	Total number (%)	Pediatric patients	Adult patients	value
Total MDR isolates (GNB)	53 (34.8)	12 (29.2)	41 (36.9)	0.346
Total ESBL isolates (GNB)	19 (12.5)	8 (19.5)	11 (7.8)	0.136
Total MBL isolates (GNB)	6 (3.9)	1 (2.4)	5 (4.5)	0.433
