Bacterial uropathogens in urinary tract infection and antibiotic susceptibility pattern in second central hospital

Abstract

Urinary tract infections (UTI) are the most common infections throughout the World, and it is common in inpatients and outpatients, with both clinical and asymptomatic signs. Globally, 150 million people are infected with urinary tract infections each year, which is 5-6 times more common in women than men. In women, uncomplicated forms of cystitis and pyelonephritis are caused by E.Coli in 75-95% of all cases. We aimed to define most common bacteria due to urinary tract infection and study antibiotic susceptibility. Retrospective cross-sectional study was used in this study. Data will be collected by the questionnaire from bacterial laboratory in Second state central hospital. In our study, E.Coli is most common cause of infection. 21.7% of all bacterial testing was E.Coli (67.3%), and Enterococcus, Klebsiella, E.Coli ESBL, Staphylococcus aureus, Candida, Acinetobacter were common cause of UTI in our department. Most of the bacteria detected were hypersensitive to imipenem, meropenem, and vancomycin. E.Coli, which is majority of infections, was hypersensitive nitrofurantoin, cefotaxime, ceftriaxone, gentamicin, and cefazoline.
