Sensitivity Pattern

Background: The spectrum of bacteria causing urinary tract infection (UTI) and their antibiotic sensitivity pattern is not uniform. Escherichia coli and Klebsiella sp. are two common organisms responsible for UTI through-out the world. The incidence of UTI due to infection with extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producing organisms are increasing. This study was aimed to describe the frequency of ESBL positive organisms causing UTI and their antibiotic sensitivity pattern.Methods: This cross-sectional study was done in the Department of Internal Medicine, BIRDEM General Hospital from January to April, 2016.Results: Total number of patients was 137 with females predominance (M:F ratio 1 : 3.7). Mean age was 60.3 ±11.7 years. Most patients (131, 95.6%) of the study population were diabetic and glycaemic control was poor (mean HbA1c 9.3 ±2.3) in these subjects. Common symptoms were fever, vomiting, increased urinary frequency, dysuria, suprapubic pain, and loin pain. Neutrophilic leukocytosis was common (94.9%). E. coli (73.7%) was the commonest aetiological agent followed by Klebsiella (8.8%), Enterococcus (4.4%), Citrobacter (3.6%), Staphylococcus aureus (3.6%), Acinetobacter (2.9%), Enterobacter (1.5%), and Pseudomonas (1.5%). Over half of E. coli and of Klebsiella sp. and 100% of Enterobacter organisms were ESBL positive. Imipenem (100%), amikacin, netilmycin,and nitrofurantoin were among the most sensitive antibiotics.Conclusion: More than half (71, 51.82%) of UTI cases were due to ESBL positive organisms. Imipenem, amikacin, netilmycin, and nitrofurantoin remain the drug of choice.J MEDICINE January 2017; 18 (1) : 3-5

Sensitivity Pattern

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is common both in the diabetic and non-diabetic patients. The widespread use of antimicrobial agents leads to emergence of resistant microorganisms. Since the pattern of bacterial resistance is constantly changing, the monitoring of the antimicrobial susceptibilities of the predominantly isolated organisms becomes more important. Aim of this study was to determine the etiologic agents and their antibiotic sensitivity pattern in both diabetic and non-diabetic patients with urinary tract infection (UTI). A total of 288 diabetics (196 female and 92 males) and 63 non diabetic patients (43 female and 20 males) with symptomatic UTI were included in this study. Among the study cases, 43.8% diabetic patients and 42.9% non-diabetic patients had positive growth from urine. Rate of isolation of Escherichia coli in diabetic was less (61.8%) compared to non diabetic (77.8%). Rate of other organisms isolated in diabetic and non diabetic patients were respectively: Klebsiella sp 6.9% vs 3.7%, Enterococcus 12.2% vs3.7%, Pseudomonas species 3.8% vs 0%, Candida species 4.6% versus 3.7%, Staphylococcus aureus 4.6% versus 7.4% etc. E coli isolated from diabetic patient was significantly (p<0.05) less sensitive to ceftriaxone, ceftazidime, cefuroxime, netilmicin, gentamicin, ciprofloxacin and nitrofurantoin than that of non diabetic patients. In addition, isolation rate of the Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamase producing gram negative bacilli was found higher among diabetic population (47.8%) compared to the non-diabetics (9.1%).

The People

Background: Urinary tract infection is defined as bacteriuria along with urinary symptoms. It is one of the most common bacterial infections in humans and a major cause of morbidity. UTI has become difficult to treat because of appearance of pathogens with increasing resistance to antimicrobial agents. The objective of this study was to determine the bacteriological profile of pathogens responsible for urinary tract infection and to assess the antibiotic sensitivity pattern of the causative uropathogens.Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed at the hospital of Sree Mookambika Institute of Medical Sciences, Kulasekharam during January 1, 2016 to December 12, 2016. Institutional ethical committee clearance was obtained. We surveyed 628 patients, who had clinical manifestations of UTI. Urine specimens were cultured for isolation of the microbial agents of UTI. The isolated bacteria were identified using biochemical tests. Data was entered in Microsoft Excel Version 2016.Statistical analysis was done using SPSS TRIAL VERSION 21C.Results: The commonest organism isolated overall was extended spectrum beta lactamase positive E. coli (35.5%) followed by extended spectrum beta lactamase negative E. coli and Enterococcus. Females (68.63%) were mostly affected than males in our study. The people in the age group of 41-60 years are found to be more (48.46%) affected than the people of other age groups. The most sensitive oral antibiotic to almost all organisms in our study is Nitrofurantoin followed by Cotrimoxazole and Norfloxacin and among parenteral antibiotics, Amikacin stands first followed by Piperacillin-Tazobactam and Gentamicin. Apart from the above antibiotics, Klebsiellapnemoniae also shows good response to Cefotaxime (96.15%) and Cefipime (96.15%) and Aztreonam (92.3%).Conclusions: From our study, it is observed that the most common causative organism for Urinary tract infection is found to be extended spectrum beta lactamase positive E. coli followed by Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamase negative E. coli and Enterococcus. The current status of sensitivity of common organism rests mainly on Nitrofurantoin (oral) and Amikacin, Piperacillin-Tazobactam (parenteral).

Sensitivity Pattern

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.
