Background and Objective: In developing countries, the steep increase in septicaemia cases is a major health problem that creates the biggest challenge for clinicians in the selection of appropriate antimicrobial agents. This is further complicated by the development of resistance in organisms to antimicrobial agents, which is the mainstay of treatment. The aim of this study was to determine the antimicrobial resistance patterns of bacterial isolates associated with sepsis among hospitalized patients including the detection of Methicillin Resistance Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Extended Spectrum Beta lactamases (ESBLs). Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out for 5 months at the Yaounde University Teaching Hospital. Bacterial species were isolated from 150 blood samples collected from hospitalized patients. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was carried out using the Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method. The isolates were tested for methicillin resistance and ESBLs. Results: The prevalence of septicaemia was 16% (24/150) among hospitalized patients. In our study, 75% (18/24) of infections were caused by Gram- negative and 25% (6/24) by Gram-positive bacteria. Klebsiella spp., Escherichia coli, and Staphylococcus aureus were the most common isolates. The antibiotic susceptibility patterns of the isolates showed that Gram-negative bacteria were highly resistant to Amoxicillin clavulanic acid and ceftriaxone while the Gram- positive bacteria were highly resistant to minocycline. Fifty percent (3/6) of the isolated S. aureus were methicillin-resistant and 27.8% (5/18) of the isolated Enterobacteriaceae were ESBLs producers. In multivariable logistic regression analysis, temperature above 37.9℃ (AOR = 4.455;95% Cl = 1.458 - 15.693;p = 0.033) and being under respiratory assistance (AOR = 4.311;95% Cl = 1.458 - 12.749;p = 0.008) were significantly associated with septicaemia. Conclusion: The Occurrence of multidrug-resistant strains in this study emphasizes the

Background: Kidney failure, cardiovascular disease, and early mortality are just a few of the major negative effects of chronic renal disease, a serious global health issue. The considerable financial and public health burden associated with chronic kidney disease can be lessened by raising awareness and adopting better practices for its impact, prevention, and early identification. Objective: In this study, individuals with hypertension and diabetes were evaluated for their knowledge of chronic kidney disease, its prevalence, and its risk factors. Method: It was a hospital-based cross-sectional study conducted on adult (>18 years) patients with diabetes mellitus and hypertension. Each participant provided written informed consent before having their data collected through interviews, medical information, and blood samples for CKD screening. The CKD epidemiology collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation was used to calculate the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) from serum creatinine, and CKD was determined using the estimated GFR (e-GFR). To find independent CKD factors, multivariate logistic regression was employed, with a p-value of 0.05 being regarded as statistically significant. This was accomplished using SPSS (Statistical Program for Social Sciences) version 22.0, IBM Corp., Armonk, NY. Result: A total of 156 participants took part in the study among which 95 (60.9%) were male, most of the participants 82 (52.6%) were aged between 51 - 70 years (mean 59.42 ± 11.007), 76 (48.7%) were unemployed and 97 (62.2%) were single. Overall, the knowledge score of participants on CKD was 65.4% for good knowledge and 34.6% for poor or inadequate knowledge of CKD. More than half of the participants (60%) had chronic kidney disease. Among these, the greatest proportion of CKD patients were those who were hypertensive (88.2%) followed by those who were both hypertensive and diabetic (70.7%). Conclusion: There is poor management of CKD in the South West Region of Cameroon which has co
