Abstract	The objective of this study was to know the bacteriological profile and its antibiotic susceptibility pattern of ear infection in patients attending tertiary care hospital & to study the antimicrobial resistance pattern of the above isolates. Ear swabs were collected & immediately processed. A total of 80 patients prescription were collected over a period of 7 months comprising 42 males and 38 females. Out of these, Chronic Suppurative Otitis Media (CSOM) was the most common disease & maximum number of cases was from the age group 21 to 30 years 22 cases (27.5%). Out of total 80 specimens 11 shows no growth of organism while 69 specimens shows growth of one or two organisms. Out of 69 growths, 58 shows single isolate and 11 shows two isolates. , Pseudomonas, Proteus, Acinetobacter, Klebsiella & Enterobacter species were the most common Gram-negative bacteria isolated followed by Staphylococcus aureus & CONS Gram-positive bacteria. The occurrence of gram negative organisms (GNB) was higher than for gram positive (GPC) with GNB 58/91 (63.73%), GPC 25/91 (27.47%) and fungi 8/91 (8.80%). Gram negative bacteria shows >90% sensitivity to Ceftazidime, Ciprofloxacin, Lomefloxacin, Gentamicin & Netilline, >75% sensitivity to Pefloxacin, Ofloxacin, Cefaperazone & Amikacin. They are resistance to Amoxyclave, Cefotaxime & Cefuroxime. Gram positive bacteria shows >90% sensitivity to Cephalexin, Linezolid, Gentamicin & Tetracycline. >80% sensitivity Cloxacillin, Cefotaxime, Lincomycin, Co-trimoxazole, Tetracycline & Amoxyclave.
