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.

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

Background: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common and frequently encountered serious morbidity that afflicts the tool not only to all segments of human population but also results in increasing antibiotic resistance due to persistence and mismanagement of the ailment. The present study aimed to ascertain the current situation of antimicrobial resistance of urinary tract infection. Objectives: To find out pyuria by direct microscopy, isolation and identification of the organisms by culture and to know the susceptibility pattern of organisms causing urinary tract infection. Materials and Methods: A total of 180 midstream urine samples were subjected to aerobic bacteriologic culture in the department of Microbiology, Cox’s Bazar Medical College and 250-bedded Sadar Hospital, Cox’s Bazar during the period of March to October 2012. Specimens were collected from hospitalized and outdoor patients of different age and sex groups. All specimens were examined by routine microscopy to find out significant pyuria (>5 pus cells/HPF). Strict aseptic precautions were taken all through the culture system. Results: Out of 180 specimens, 101 (56.11%) culture yielded significant growth of single organism and 79 (43.89%) yielded no growth. The isolated organisms were E. coli 74.26%, Klebsiella species 12.87%, Enterococci 4.95%, Staphylococcus saprophyticus 3.96%, Pseudomonas species 1.98% and Proteus species 1.98%. The highest sensitivity was shown by imipenem (100%) followed by ceftriaxone (65%), azithromycin (65%), ciprofloxacin (60%) and less sensitive to amoxycillin, cotrimoxazole, cephradine and nalidixic acid ranging 15–30%. Conclusion: The findings of the present study recommends that UTI should be treated by selective antibiotics obtained from culture and sensitivity test to minimize increasing trend of drug resistance.

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

Urinary tract infection is a common complication of Nephrotic syndrome, many cases remain asymptomatic. This study was aimed to determine the possible underlying causes of urinary tract infection in Nephrotic syndrome. The study population in this descriptive study included children aged six months to fourteen years old with Nephrotic syndrome referred to Paediatric ward of Faridpur Medical College Hospital from June 2015 to March 2016. The mean age was 6.12±3.25 years in UTI group and 7.26±3.39 years in without UTI group. Male were predominant in both groups, 15(60.0%) in UTI group and 24(64.9%) in without UTI group. Serum albumin, total protein, urinary protein excretion, the number of white blood cells, hemoglobin, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, blood creatinine, nitrogen, blood urea, serum triglycerides were not statistically significant between the groups. The most common microorganisms involved in urinary tract infection were: Escherichia coli (13%) & Klebsiella (13%). Majority 29(46.8%) patients had fever, 12(19.4%) had diarrhea, 11(17.7%) had bad smell of urine, 10(16.1%) had vomiting associated with diarrhea and 10(16.1%) had respiratory symptoms. Children with nephrotic syndrome are frequently predisposed to urinary tract infection and in most cases it is asymptomatic, often undiagnosed. E. coli is the commonest organism causing UTI.Faridpur Med. Coll. J. Jan 2018;13(1): 35-39

Background : Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most important causes of morbidity and mortality in the developing countries like Bangladesh. Antimicrobial agents are the frequently used drug for its treatment. Periodic evaluation of antimicrobial activity of different antibiotics is essential as the pattern of antibiotic sensitivity may vary over periods. Increasing antibiotic resistance among urinary pathogens to commonly prescribed drugs has become a global reality today.Objective : To determine the prevalence and to find out the causative agents of UTI and their antibiotic sensitivity pattern among suspected UTI patients attending Northern International Medical College Hospital (NIMCH), Dhaka.Methods : A retrospective study was conducted at Northern International Medical College Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh by analyzing the records of urine samples collected for culture and sensitivity tests over a period of six months (January 2014 to June 2014). Of the total 878 clean catch mid-stream urine samples collected from suspected cases of UTI patients of all ages and both sexes. Urine specimens were cultured for isolation of microbial agents of urinary tract infection. The isolated bacteria were identified using biochemical test. The diffusion susceptibility test was used to determine susceptibility of bacterial agents to antibiotics. Computerized data was collected from Microbiology department of NIMCH and analyzed by Microsoft Excel Version 2013.Results : In this study, 182 (20.73%) out of 878 urine sample were positive for pathogenic organisms. Of the various pathogenic organisms isolated, Escherichia coli constituted for 85.16% followed by Pseudomonas sp, Acinatobactersp, Group D Streptococcus, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiellasp, Enterobactersp and others. E.coli was found to be most sensitive to Imipenem, Amikacin and Meropenem and resistant to most commonly used oral drugs like Azithromycin, Cefexime, cotrimoxazole and Ciprofloxacin and Levofloxacin.Conclusion : Mainly Gram negative bacilli is responsible for UTI and most frequent isolated bacteria was E-coli. The most effective antibiotics were Imipenem, Amikacin, Meropenem,all of them are parentral. Majority E-coli were resistant to commonly used oral drugs like Azithromycin, Cefexime, cotrimoxazole and Ciprofloxacin. Therefore the choice of antibiotic therapy in UTI should be depends on the local sensitivity pattern of the infecting organisms.Northern International Medical College Journal Vol.7(1) Jul 2015: 105-109
