In hospital settings, Pseudomonas oryzihabitans, a gram-negative bacillus, is frequently isolated from patients with bacteremia, CNS infections, catheter-associated infections or any other device-related infections, sinusitis, wound infections, and skin infections. There have only been a few cases of bacteremia brought on by this unusual infection. This is the first case study of a terminally ill patient from North India who had chronic liver disease. After proper isolation and the early start of treatments based on sensitivity patterns, the condition was successfully treated, although he later passed away as a result of other issues. Despite being uncommon, this organism can cause opportunistic infections in people with impaired immune systems. The reporting of this uncommon but significant pathogen in hospital settings is constrained by the requirement for automated procedures for identification and sensitivity testing. We can quickly treat infections brought on by this opportunistic pathogen by accurate identification and antibiotic susceptibility testing.
