Abstract (2. Language): 
Introduction: The present study was planned to identify the nonfermenters isolated from various clinical samples, to assess their clinical significance, to know the type of healthcare-associated infections they caused, and to know their anti-microbial sensitivity pattern. Material and Methods: The nonfermenters were identified using a standard conventional method including motility, oxidase production; oxidation-fermentation etc. and antibiotic susceptibility testing was performed with the help of the Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method. Observations and Results: The most common isolates were Pseudomonas aeruginosa accounting for 1845(76.97%), followed by A. baumanii 512(21.36%) etc. Conclusion: P.aeruginosa and A.baumanii are most common NFGNB isolated in our study from patient of surgical site infection, urinary tract infection, bacteremia etc. P.aeruginosa showed good sensitivity to imipenem and pip.tazobactam. A.baumanii also showed good sensitivity to imipenem.
