Background: A unique challenge for clinical microbiologists, clinicians, infection control professionals is to deal with extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) producing pathogens. The study was aims to isolate ESBL producing bacteria from urine samples of Urinary Tract Infection (UTI)-patients and to analyses their phenotypic and genotypic characteristics. Methods: A total of 90 urine samples from UTI patients were collected from Enam Medical College Hospital and Gonoshastha Medical College Hospital, Savar, Dhaka, Bangladesh; between May-2012 to August-2012. A total 75gram negative isolates were retrieved and screened for ESBL production by the Double Disk Diffusion Synergy Test (DDST). Isolates with ESBL phenotype were further characterised by antibiotic susceptibility testing, PCR and sequencing of β-lactamase genes. Results: Cultural and biochemical assay combined with 16S rRNA gene based phylogenetic identification confirmed that Escherichia spp. were predominant pathogens associate with UTI (41%), and the rest were distributed within the genus Enterobacter spp. 26%, Klebsiella spp. 21% , and Pseudomonas spp.10%. Total 31 isolates were phenotypically confirmed as ESBLs through DDST. The multidrug resistant (MDR) and ESBL producing bacteria showed high resistance to cefotaxime (96%), cefixime (90%) and imipenem (32%). PCR reaction was carried out targeting the genes blaTEM, blaCTX. Dominant ESBL class was CTX-M (65%) followed by TEM (52%). All ESBL isolates except 7 possesses multiple plasmids indicating possibility of both chromosomal and plasmid inheritance of ESBLs. Conclusions: This study shows a high prevalence of ESBL producing MDR in UTI patients among these two hospitals of Bangladesh indicating the necessity of alternative therapeutic intervention.

Background and objective: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the frequently seen infections both in the world and in our country as well. Escherichia coli (E. coli) aremost frequently isolated in complicated or uncomplicated, nosocomial or community acquired urinary tract infections. To guide the empirical therapy, the resistance pattern of E. coli responsible was evaluated throughout the period in this study.Material and Method: Urine samples from outpatient / inpatient department of Ibn Sina Medical College Hospital between 1st January, 2015 and 31st December, 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. Presence of ?105 colony forming units/ml in urine culture was considered as significant for UTI. Isolated bacteria were identified by standard laboratory techniques and antibiotic susceptibility testing was performed by Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method using Clinical Laboratory Standard Institute (CLSI) criteria.Result: A total of 271(13.4%) uropathogens were isolated. Overall E. coli accounted for 180 (66.42%) of all isolates. Resistance rates of E. coli to antimicrobial agents was demonstrated to be as follows: cefuroxime 82%, nalidaxic acid 74%, azithromycin 56%, cefotaxime52%, ceftazidime50%, cefixime 47%, cotrimoxazole 43%, ceftriaxone 41%, ciprofloxacin38%, amoxicillin- clavulanic acid 31%, cefepime30%, and low resistance which ranges from 9 to 1% included gentamycin 9%, meropenem 3%, imipenem2%, nitrofurantoin2% and amikacin 1%.Conclusion: As resistance rates show regional differences, it is necessary to regularly monitor regional resistance pattern to determine the appropriate empiric antibiotic treatment. The national antibiotic usage policies must be reorganized according to data obtained from these studies.Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol.16(1) 2017 p.42-47

Abstract Background In recent years, less options are available for treating carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii and carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The present study investigatesthe susceptibility rates to imipenem/relebactamfor the treatment of intra-abdominal infections (IAIs), respiratory tract infections (RTIs) and urinary tract infections (UTIs) caused by A. baumannii and P. aeruginosain China. Methods 1,886 P. aeruginosa and 1,889 A.baumanniiisolates were collected in 21 centers (7 regions) as part of the global SMART surveillance program between 2015 and 2018. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed according tothe Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) recommendations using the broth microdilution methodology in the Peking Union Medical College Hospital. Results Rates of imipenem-non-susceptibilities of P. aeruginosa and A. baumanniiisolates were 44.3% and 79.0%, whereas the multidrug-resistance (MDR) rateswere 44.3% and 81.9%, respectively.For P. aeruginosa, susceptibility rates to imipenem/relebactamwere 84.2% at aCLSI breakpoint of ≤ 2 mg/L compared to 55.7% for imipenem. The MIC90 of imipenem/relebactam(8 mg/L) was one fourth of that of imipenem (32 mg/L).The susceptibilities of imipenem-non-susceptible and MDRP.aeruginosastrains were similarly restored by imipenem/relebactam in non-ICU and ICU wards.The susceptiblity rate of A. baumannii isolates to imipenem was 21.0% and to imipenem/relebactam 22.2%. Conclusions Imipenem/relebactam provides a therapy option for infections caused by MDRor imipenem-non-susceptible P. aeruginosa infections in China.

Among hospitalized patients, the most common nosocomial infection is Urinary tract infection (UTI). The knowledge about the type of pathogens responsible for UTI and susceptibility and resistance pattern of the causative agents at a specific area may help the doctors to choose correct treatment regimen. This study was aimed to investigate the antibiotic susceptibility and resistance pattern of isolated urinary pathogens. This study was done at Anwer Khan Modern Medical College Hospital, Dhaka during January- June, 2011. Out of 498 clinical samples of urine collected, 245 (49.19%) showed significant bacterial growth. The most common pathogens isolated were Escherichia coli (142, 58.0%), Streptococcus feacalis (38, 15.5%), Pseudomonus (20, 8.2%), Klebsiella species (20, 8.2%) and Staphylococcus epidermidis (14, 5.7%). Members of the Enterobacteriaceae were 75%-100%sensitive to Amikacin and Nitrofurantoin while they were found variably sensitive to other commonly used antibiotics. Pseudomonas species were found 90% sensitive to Meropenem and 70% to Amikacin. Strep. feacalis were found 94.7% sensitive to Amoxicillin, 84.2% to Amoxiclave and 78.9% to Ciprofloxacin, 65.5% to Cephalexin, 50% to Ceftriaxone. The clinicians should use Meropenem and Amikacin selectively in cases of un-responsiveness to commonly used antibiotics.

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is the most common nosocomial infection among hospitalized patients. Area-specific monitoring studies aimed to gain knowledge about the type of pathogens responsible for UTIs and resistance pattern of the causative agents may help clinicians to choose correct treatment regimen. So, the present study was aimed to investigate the antibiotic resistance of urinary pathogens isolated at Chittagong Medical College Hospital (CMCH) during January to June, 2007. Out of 360 clinical samples of urine collected, 175 (48.61%) showed significant bacterial growth. The most common pathogens isolated were Escherichia coli (66, 37.71%), Klebsiella species (60, 34.29%), Proteus species (17, 9.71%) and Pseudomonas species (16, 9.14%). Members of the Enterobacteriaceae were 80%-100% sensitive to Imipenem while they were found variably sensitive to other commonly used antibiotics. Pseudomonas species were 100% sensitive to Imipenem, 75% to Amikacin, and 50% to Ceftazidime. Staphylococcus aureus was found 100% sensitive to Vancomycin, 80% to Gentamicin and Amikacin each, and 55% to Oxacillin. Enterococcus species were 80% sensitive to Imipenem, 60% to Ciprofloxacin, 50% to Vancomycin and Amikacin each. The clinicians should use Imipenem selectively in cases of un-responsiveness to commonly used antibiotics.Bangladesh J Med Microbiol 2008; 02 (02): 17-21

BACKGROUND Urinary tract infections (UTI) constitute a common cause of morbidity in infants and children. When associated with abnormalities of urinary tract, they may lead to long-term complications including renal scarring, loss of function and hypertension. Most urinary tract infections remain undiagnosed if investigations are not routinely performed to detect them. Prompt detection and treatment of urinary tract infections and any complicating factors are important. The objective of the study is to know the clinical, epidemiological and bacteriological profile (i.e. clinical signs and symptoms, age, sex, family history, associated urinary tract abnormalities, & causative organisms) of urinary tract infections in febrile children with culture positive urinary tract infection. METHODS This descriptive, cross sectional observational study was conducted at outpatient clinics of our “child health clinics” between May 2016 and April 2017 (one year). All children aged 0 to 12 years with culture positive urinary tract infections were included in this study to evaluate the clinical, epidemiological and bacteriological profile. RESULTS A total of 69 children with culture positive urinary tract infections were included in this study. Out of 69 children included in this study, 36 (52.2 %) were females and 33 (47.8 %) were males. Overall female preponderance was seen and the M: F ratio was 0.9:1. But during first year of life in our study group we had more boys (10, 14.49 %) affected with urinary tract infection than girls. 49.3 % of urinary tract infections in the present study belonged to lower socio-economic status. Most common organism causing urinary tract infection in our group was E. coli (56.5 %). Fever (100 %), anorexia or refusal of feeds (52.2 %), dysuria (46.4 %), vomiting (46.4 %) and abdominal pain (39.1 %) were the predominant clinical manifestations observed in our study. CONCLUSIONS Urinary tract infection is a common medical problem in children and it should be considered as a potential cause of fever in children. As febrile children with urinary tract infection usually present with non-specific signs and symptoms, urine culture should be considered as a part of diagnostic evaluation.
