Resumo

 Otitis externa is one of the most frequent diseases in the clinical
routine of dogs and cats, and they can be caused by several associated factors.
Due to incorrect use of antimicrobial products, the treatment and control of otitis
have become challenging. This study aims to analyze the results of otological
exams at the Laboratory of Microbiology HV-ULBRA in 2020 and demonstrate
the profie of patients and isolated bacteria. Staphylococcus was the main genus
isolated, and 71,11% of samples showed multi-drug resistance to antimicrobial
testing. These results indicate the need to use complementary examinations to
control otitis externa.

 Keywords: canines, felines, otological diseases, antimicrobial susceptibility test
