Clinicians have called for more laboratories and research after the discovery of multi-drug-resistant bacteria in sick patients in Battambang.

In 2014 and 2015, researchers analysed 212 stool samples of patients with acute diarrhea in health care facilities in Battambang, according to a paper to be published in the September edition of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Emerging Infectious Diseases journal and made available on the agency’s website on Wednesday.

The research found that Shigella bacteria resistant to several drugs, such as ampicillin, tetracycline and trimethoprim, were present in 10 of the samples.
