Background: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common bacterial infections seen in children. A wide range of organisms with varying antibiotic sensitivity patterns have been known to cause UTI. The objective of the study was to analyse the clinical presentation of UTI in children between 1-month to15 years of age and to analyse the causative microorganism and their drug susceptibility in UTI in children between 1 month to 15 years of age.Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in a teaching hospital in Kerala, between July 2018 and June 2020 among children 1 month to 15 years of age who presented with symptoms of UTI. Patients who had culture positive UTI were included in the study. Clinical data was obtained from inpatient and outpatient records. Antimicrobial susceptibility was done for positive urine culture by Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method. Statistical analysis was done using Statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) software version 16.Results: Of the 1057 urine samples analysed, 18.44% had significant bacteuria. 43.07% were children less than one year of age with male predominance. Fever and dysuria were the most common clinical presentation. E. coli was the most prevalent pathogen isolated followed by Klebsiella pneumoniae. Enterococcus faecalis was the only gram-positive bacilli isolated. Highest resistance was shown to ampicillin, third generation cephalosporins and co-trimoxazole. Least resistance was shown to nitrofurantoin, fluoroquinolones, aminoglycosides, piperacillin- tazobactam and carbapenems.Conclusions: Regular surveillance programme is necessary for implementation of guidelines for empiric treatment of UTI.

IntroductionIn developing countries, urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of the most commonly diagnosed diseases among the patient seeking medical service and being treated with empirical antibiotics which causes resistance.ObjectiveTo find out the prevalence of urinary tract infection and sensitivity pattern of antibiotics among bacterial pathogens isolated in patients attending Kathmandu Medical College Teaching Hospital, Duwakot.MethodologyAll the patients with the clinical suspicion of UTI were sent for urine culture. Prevalence of UTI and urinary pathogens isolated with antimicrobial profile was correlated.ResultA total number of 1735 clinically suspected as UTI cases were sent for urine culture sensitivity. Total culture positive were 239 (13.8%). The majority of isolates were from female patients comprising 180 (75%). The most common pathogenic microorganism isolated was E.coli (79.1%). Second most common organism was Klebsiella (11.7%) followed by Citrobacter (3.34%) and Proteus (2.92%). The isolated microorganism showed maximum number of sensitivity with the antibiotics Ofloxacin and Ciprofloxacin. The isolated microorganism demonstrated resistance with Nalidixic Acid and Co-Trimoxazole. ConclusionUrinary tract infection is a commonly encountered case in general practice. Females are commonly affected than men. The microbiological profile and the antibiotic sensitivity pattern while initiating empirical treatment must be taken into account while planning for the management. Regular supervision of the sensitivity pattern of pathogenic microorganism is mandatory for effective treatment.Birat Journal of Health Sciences Vol.2/No.1/Issue 2/ Jan - April 2017, Page: 134-137

Background: Tonsillitis is a frequent condition noticed in the ENT department of every hospital. One out of every 10 children visiting the ENT OPD, suffer from acute tonsillitis. Methods: This was a prospective observational study conducted on patients coming with a history of throat pain, pain on swallowing, fever, body ache and other constitutional symptoms. Results: Antibiotic resistance was seen in case of the commonly used antibiotics like ampicillin, amoxicillin, Amoxicillin+Clavulanic acid. Cephalosporins were less commonly used antibiotics and showed resistance in 78.00% cases. Cotrimoxazole showed about 16.00% resistant cases. The less commonly used antibiotic was vancomycin however, showed high sensitivity (100%) followed by Linezolid (92.00%) and Clindamycin (82.00%). Erythromycin showed 76% sensitivity while ciprofloxacin showed a low sensitivity of 40.00% followed by Cephalosporins (22.0%). Conclusion: The antibiotic sensitivity pattern could revolutionize the management of chronic tonsillitis. Keywords: Acute tonsillitis, Antibiotics, Sensitivity

Abstrak : Penyakit infeksi merupakan salah satu masalah kesehatan yang penting. Penggunaan antibiotik yang tidak rasional dan tepat guna pada pasien penyakit infeksi beresiko menyebabkan terjadinya resistensi. Tujuan dari penelitian ini yaitu untuk mengetahui pola kepekaan bakteri terhadap antibiotik pada pasien Ruang Rawat Intensif (ICU) RSPI Prof. Dr. Sulianti Saroso (RSPI-SS) Jakarta. Penelitian dilakukan deskriptif dan retrospektif terhadap data sekunder hasil uji kepekaan antibiotik dan jenis bakteri dari 107 pasien dalam kurun waktu 2011. Hasil menunjukkan 68 (65,4%) pasien mendapatkan hasil kultur positif dan uji kepekaan bakteri terhadap antibiotik. Jenis bakteri patogen yang dominan yaitu Acinetobacter baumannii (29,4%), disusul oleh Pseudomonas aeruginosa (27,9%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (13,2%) dan Escherichia coli (8,8%). Sebagian besar bakteri pada pasien ICU RSPISS telah berkurang kepekaannya (resisten) terhadap beberapa antibiotik. A. baumannii dan P. aeruginosa merupakan bakteri yang paling resisten terhadap antibiotik uji. Pola kepekaannya menunjukkan bahwa bakteri patogen mempunyai resistensi tertinggi terhadap erythromycin dan terendah terhadap amikasin.Infectious diseases is an important health problem. Irrational antibiotics usage is a leading cause in initiating drugs resistances. A preliminary study was conducted on the sensitivity pattern of microorganisms against antibiotics at the intensive care unit of Sulianti Infectious Diseases Hospital Jakarta. Retrospective. Secondary data were collected on the results of antibiotics sensitivity tests and species of microorganisms of 107 patients during the year 2011. Sixty eight (65,4%) patients were positive on microorganism culture test and tested on antibiotic sensitivity test. Predominance pathogenic species found were Acinetobacter baumannii (29,4%), followed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa (27,9%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (13,2%) and Escherichia coli (8,8%). Most species were less sensitive (resistant) to several antibiotics. The pattern of sensitivity showed that pathogenic microorganisms were the most resistant against erythromycin and the most sensitive antibiotics was amikacin.

Background: Urinary tract infection (UTI) being one of the most common and a serious health problem both in the community and hospital settings each year worldwide, the emergence of antibiotic resistance in the management of UTI is a serious public health issue. The present study will analyse the antimicrobial sensitivity pattern of pathogens isolated from the urine samples of admitted patients suffering from UTI in Tripura Medical College and Dr. B.R. Ambedkar Memorial Teaching Hospital (TMC).Methods: This was a hospital record-based study. The urine samples of clinically diagnosed UTI patients admitted in various departments of the hospital during the study period were included. The reports of culture and sensitivity testing of the samples were collected. The results were interpreted according to the guidelines of the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI).Results: During the 12-month study period, a total of 752 urine samples were analysed. Enterococcus (43.75%) was the most frequently isolated bacteria, followed by E. coli (28.45%) and Klebsiella (14.89%). Enterococcus was highly sensitive (p<0.001) to vancomycin (95.33%), E. coli was mostly sensitive to nitrofurantoin (83.65%) and Klebsiella mainly sensitive to imipenem (75.49%).Conclusions: The study showed that positive urine culture with the antibiotic sensitivity of the isolates is very important for antimicrobial therapy, as antibiotic resistance is a worldwide problem which causes ineffectiveness of treatment.
