Background:

Pseudomonas denitrificans is a rare cause of human infection.
Bacteremia and meningitis are serious conditions requiring prompt diagnosis and treatment.

Observation:

An elderly male presented with symptoms indicative of bacteremia and meningitis.
The causative agent was identified as Pseudomonas denitrificans.

Findings:

The study discusses the antimicrobial susceptibility profile of the isolated Pseudomonas denitrificans.
Minimum criteria for the accurate identification of this unusual pathogen are presented.

Implications:

Understanding the susceptibility patterns of rare pathogens like P. denitrificans is crucial for effective treatment strategies.
