The findings of this study show alarming MDR among hospitalized patients infected with ESKAPE pathogens, with resistance to first-line antimicrobial agents and emerging resistance to colistin, minimizing treatment options. Healthcare providers and the Ministry of Health must take steps, adopt policies to prevent antimicrobial resistance, adhere to infection control guidelines, implement antimicrobial stewardship programs to prevent and limit the growing health crisis, and support research to discover new treatment options.
