Aim: To determine whether short term bladder catheterisation for 24 hrs after vaginal hysterectomy for prolapse would be more advantageous to routinely practiced 3 days catheterisation. Method: Randomized comparative study was done as thesis topic in Gynaecological Ward of TU Teaching Hospital, Maharajgunj, Kathmandu from 30th October 2004 to 2nd November 2005. A total of 100 women were included in this study. Prior to surgery at OT table, and before giving prophylactic antibiotics urine samples were collected from metal catheter for routine analysis. They were randomized into two groups. In groups 1 (n=50) transurethral catheter was removed after 24 hrs of surgery. In group 2 (n=50) catheter was removed on 3rd post operative day. Urine culture was taken before removal of the catheter. Residual volume of urine after the first voiding was measured by transabdominal ultrasound. Recatheterisation for three more days was considered whenever residual volume exceeded 200ml. Result: Recatheterisation was not needed in either groups for residual volume >200ml. Regarding recatheterisation 4 needed them after 2-3 hrs of first voiding. Among these 4 women, cause of urinary retention was accountable for pelvic haematoma leading to pelvic abscess in one case, which belonged to group 1 where as urinary tract infection was responsible for urinary retention in group 2. There were no explainable causes in two cases. But urinary tract infection was seen in two cases in group 1 and 11 cases in group 2 (P value 0.017). Conclusion: This study has shown that short term catheterisation is more beneficial in terms of lower incidence of urinary tract infection (2 Vs 11) and related febrile morbidity as compared to long term catheterisation. Key words: Uterovaginal prolapse, pelvic floor repair with vaginal hysterectomy, catheterisation.   doi:10.3126/njog.v2i1.1473 N. J. Obstet. Gynaecol Vol. 2, No. 1, p. 29 - 34 May -June 2007

Objective: This study was undertaken to determine whether short term bladder catheterization would be more beneficial than the routinely practiced long term catheterization after vaginal hysterectomy for prolapsed uterus.  Materials and methods: This randomized controlled trial was conducted in Obstetrics and Gynecology Department of Dhaka National Medical College Hospital from January 2009 to January 2011. A total of 106 women were included in this study. They were randomized into short term catheterization group where transurethral catheter was removed after 24 hours of surgery and long term catheterization group where catheter was removed on 3rd post operative day.  Result: Mean time of first voiding after removal of catheter was almost equal in both groups (2.82±1.42 hours and 2.74±1.52 hours). Duration of catheter did not affect the duration of first voiding time after removal of catheter (P>0.05). None of the women had residual volume of urine >200 ml in both groups. Mean residual volume is significantly high in long term catheterization group (P<0.05). Urinary tract infection was also significantly high in long term catheterization group (P<0.05) and majority of the infection were caused by E. coli.  Conclusion: Short term catheterization is more beneficial in terms of lower incidence of urinary tract infection and prevention of bladder over filling as compared to long term catheterization after vaginal prolapsed surgery.

Abstract Background The mainstay for the diagnosis of prostate cancer is transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy. However, prostate biopsy is associated with a significant risk of complications including urinary tract infection. This study aims to compare the bacterial profile and antibiotic susceptibility pattern in urinary tract infection after prostate biopsy between patients on 2 different antimicrobial prophylactic regimens. Methods This was a comparative cross-sectional study done at the urology unit of our institution, over 13 months. Fifty-six patients who met the inclusion criteria made up the study population and were randomly assigned to two groups. Those in group 1 (28) received intravenous ciprofloxacin (Juhel) 400 mg at induction of anesthesia, while those in group 2 (28) received intravenous ceftriaxone (Rocephin) 1 g at induction of anesthesia. All patients received bisacodyl (dulcolax) rectal suppositories 20 mg nocte starting 2 nights before the procedure as well as intravenous metronidazole (Juhel) at induction of anesthesia. Urine samples were taken for urine culture and sensitivity three days after biopsy. Isolated organisms and their antibiotics sensitivities were documented. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS version 21.0 with the level of significance set at P < 0.05. Results In group 1 the prevalence of urinary tract infection was 61%. Escherichia coli was isolated in 11(64.71%) cases, Klebsiella species in 3(17.65%), staphylococcus aureus in 1(5.88%), Proteus species in 1(5.88%), and non-hemolytic streptococcus species in 1(5.88%). In this group, all isolated bacterial organisms were resistant to ciprofloxacin. In group 2 the prevalence of urinary tract infection was 43%. Klebsiella spp was isolated in 6(50%) cases, Pseudomonas aeruginosa in 3(25%), E. coli in 2(16.67%), Staphylococcus in 1(8.33%). In group 2 all isolated bacterial organisms were resistant to ceftriaxone. Conclusion Ciprofloxacin and ceftriaxone are both associated with a high rate of urinary tract infection when used as prophylaxis for prostate biopsy. The bacterial etiology of prostate biopsy-related urinary tract infection is dependent on the prophylactic antibiotics used. Based on the high rate of urinary tract infection associated with the use of either ciprofloxacin or ceftriaxone, we recommend a combination of both drugs as prophylaxis for prostate biopsy.

Objective. To compare how parents and physicians value potential clinical outcomes in young children who have a fever but no focus of bacterial infection. Methods. Cross-sectional study of 100 parents of well children aged 3 to 24 months, 61 parents of febrile children aged 3 to 24 months, and 56 attending staff physicians working in a children's hospital emergency department. A pretested visual analog scale was used to assess values on a 0-to-1 scale (where 0 is the value of the worst possible outcome, and 1 is the value for the best) for 22 scenarios, grouped in three categories according to severity. Based on the three or four common attributes comprising the scenarios in a given group, each respondent's value function was estimated statistically based on multiattribute utility theory. Results. For outcomes in group 1 (rapidly resolving viral infection with one or more diagnostic tests), no significant group differences were observed. For outcomes in groups 2 (acute infections without long-term sequelae) and 3 (long-term sequelae of urinary tract infection or bacterial meningitis), parents of well children and parents of febrile children had values that were similar to each other but significantly lower than physicians' values for pneumonia with delayed diagnosis, false-positive diagnosis of urinary tract infection, viral meningitis, and unilateral hearing loss. For bacterial meningitis with or without delay, however, the reverse pattern was observed; physicians' values were lower than parents'. In arriving at their judgment for group 2 and 3 scenarios, parents gave significantly greater weight to attributes involving the pain and discomfort of diagnostic tests and to diagnostic error, whereas physicians gave significantly greater weight to attributes involving both short- and long-term morbidity and long-term worry and inconvenience. Parents were significantly more likely to be risk-seeking in the way they weighted the attributes comprising group 2 and 3 scenarios than physicians, ie, they were more willing to risk rare but severe morbidity to avoid the short-term adverse effects of testing. Conclusions. Parents and physicians show fundamental value differences concerning diagnostic testing, diagnostic error, and short- and long-term morbidity; these differences have important implications for diagnostic decision making in the young febrile child.

Urethral Dilation

To study the influence of successful ureterovesicoplasty on incidence of recurrent urinary infection, two groups of infected children were compared in this regard before and after urologic evaluation. Of 280 new pediatric urologic hospital admissions, 55.6% had urinary tract infections. Sixty-six of these 156 infected children had vesicoureteral reflux. Bacteriologic localization of infection site was performed in both children with and without reflux at the time of diagnostic cystoscopy. Both groups were specifically treated with short-term antibiotic therapy and empiric urethral dilation. Operative vesicoureteroplasty was carried out in 62 children with reflux, with an overall cure rate of 83.8%. Distal urethral stenosis was not a contributing factor in this population nor did urethral caliber relate to the incidence of reflux. Only 3 of 35 children without reflux were found to have bacteriologically proved upper urinary tract infection. Similarly, only 32% of these children without reflux had clinical histories suggestive of recurrent pyelonephritis. In the children with reflux undergoing bacteriologic localization while infected, no nonrefluxing ureters were found infected, and only one third of the refluxing ureters so studied had proved upper urinary tract infection. Historical evidence for clinical pyelonephritis was present in 79% of the population with reflux; but, after successful cure of reflux, only 7% of these children continued to have pyelonephritic episodes. The long-term incidence of recurrent urinary tract infection was virtually identical, however, in the children undergoing successful antireflux surgery and the children without reflux following ureteral dilation. This relationship indicates that reflux plays little role in the etiology of bacteriunia but has a profound influence on urinary tract infection morbidity in children.

The aim of this study was to analyze risk factors for postoperative urinary tract infection (UTI) and urinary retention (UR) in patients with colorectal cancer. Using Nationwide Inpatient Sample 2006–2009, a retrospective analysis of surgical patients with colorectal cancer was conducted. Patients were stratified into groups, with or without UTI/UR. The LASSO algorithm for logistic regression identified independent risk factors. A total of 93,931 surgical patients with colorectal cancer were identified. The incidences of UTI and UR were 5.91 and 2.52 per cent, respectively. Overall in-hospital mortality was 2.68 per cent. The UTI group demonstrated significantly higher in-hospital mortality rates compared with those without. Both UTI and UR groups were associated with prolonged hospital stay and increased hospital charge. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed age older than 60 years, females, anemia, congestive heart failure, coagulopathy, diabetes with chronic complications, fluid and electrolyte, paralysis, pulmonary circulation disorders, renal failure, and weight loss were independent risk factors of UTI. Age older than 60 years, male gender, rectal and rectosigmoid cancers, and postoperative anastomotic leakage and ileus were independent risk factors for UR. Postoperative UTI increases in-house mortality. Postoperative UTI/UR in patients with colorectal cancer increases length of stay and hospital charges. Knowledge of these specific risk factors for UTI and UR is needed to counsel patients and prevent these complications in this high-risk population.

Abstract Background Childhood urinary tract infection (UTI) may cause increased major morbidity and long-term clinical consequences. Extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) is produced by the members of the Enterobacteriaceae family, which are the primary infectious agents that cause UTI in children. Isolation of ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-E) typically occurred in healthcare facilities; however, the incidence of community-associated (CA) UTIs due to ESBL-E has increased worldwide. It has led to an increase in the use of carbapenems. In this study, we determine the characteristics of community-onset UTIs caused by ESBL-E in children to suggest non-carbapenem options for the treatment of childhood UTIs due to ESBL-E in order to preserve carbapenems. Methods A total of 2,157 isolates of ESBL-E were collected from children below 18 years old who were clinically certified UTI or urosepsis between January 2008 and August 2018 at tertiary university hospital in Korea. Their electronic medical records were retrospectively reviewed. Long-term healthcare facility stay within the preceding month and isolates recovered more than 72 hours after hospitalization were the criteria of healthcare-associated (HA) infection. Results The most common isolates were E. coli 1815 (84.2%) followed by K. pneumoniae 342 (15.8%). CA infection was detected in 1,513 of the 2157 ESBL-E (70.1%). The prevalence of CA ESBL-E infection increased significantly from 68 cases in 2008 to 325 cased in 2017. Antibiotic susceptibility test showed highest sensitivity to ertapenem, meropenem, and amikacin (>90%) followed by cefoxitin (82%), and piperacillin–tazobactam (TZP) (80.5%). CA E. coli showed higher sensitivity to amikacin and TZP compared with HA E coli. CA K. pneumoniae showed much higher sensitivity to TZP compared with HA K. pneumoniae. Of total ESBL-E, the antimicrobial resistance rate to aminoglycoside such as amikacin and gentamicin showed full sensitivity during the study period; furthermore, a rate of resistance to TZP has been decreasing over the years. Conclusion Identifying antibiotic susceptibility patterns of ESBL-E is a useful guide for treatment strategy of UTI. This study showed that there are non-carbapenem options for the treatment of CA ESBL UTI in children. Disclosures All authors: No reported disclosures.
