Introduction: Urinary tract infection is one of the common community and nosocomial problem that we encounter at a daily basis. The mounting emergence resistant strains bacteria causing urinary (UTI) great concern. We had tried in this study to outline local pattern antibiotic resistance commonly found uropathogens.

Urinary tract infections are a common cause of end-stage renal disease in Turkey. This prospective study investigated the antibiotic resistance patterns of uropathogens in order to recommend appropriate therapeutic protocols for children with urinary tract infections in Istanbul, Turkey. Between October 2007 and October 2008, children presenting with a first episode of urinary tract infection t...

Urinary tract infections are one of the most common infectious diseases diagnosed in outpatients as well as in hospitalized patients. Recently, urinary tract infections have become more complicated and difficult to treat. Therefore, the present study analyzed the occurrence and antimicrobial susceptibility of uropathogens isolated at Kobe University Hospital between 1983 and 2002. This study wa...

The increase in antibiotic resistance among uropathogens is a global problem. The present study was an effort to assess the current antibiotic resistance pattern and plasmid profiles of some multi drug resistant bacteria isolated from urinary tract infection (UTI). Among 44 clinical samples of radiologically positive UTI, 44 microorganisms belonging to 9 genus were isolated. Of the patients, 24...

BACKGROUND Urinary tract infection is the second most common type of infection and the problem is further compounded by the emergence of drug resistance in bacterial uropathogens. The aim of this study was to determine the spectrum of bacterial uropathogens and their drug resistant pattern. METHODS A single institutional cross-sectional study was carried out at Arsho Advanced Medical laborato...

Objective: This study aims to determine the prevalence of urinary tract infection (UTI) among pregnant women and multidrug-resistant (MDR) uropathogens with reference to extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producers. Methods: Three hundred urine specimens collected from pregnant women were studied. A semi-quantitative method was used for diagnosis of UTI. Isolation, identification, and anti...

BACKGROUND A good proportion of pregnant women patronize traditional birth homes in Nigeria for ante-natal care. This study aimed at determining the prevalence, risk factors, and susceptibility profile of etiologic agents of urinary tract infection among ante-natal attendees in a traditional birth home in Benin City, Nigeria. METHODS Clean-catch urine was collected from 220 pregnant women att...

BACKGROUND To investigate a possible role of Cefditoren, a recently marketed in Greece third-generation oral cephalosporin in urinary infections of outpatients. METHODS During a multicenter survey of Enterobacteriaceae causing UTIs in outpatients during 2005-2007, Cefditoren MICs were determined by agar dilution method in a randomly selected sample of uropathogens. Susceptibility against 18 o...
