Overview

Cross-sectional study analyzed uropathogens and antibiotic susceptibility in UTI patients, showing significant resistance patterns.

Key Points

  • Out of 282 urine samples, 54 (19.1%) demonstrated significant growth of uropathogens, highlighting a concerning issue of urinary tract infections.
  • High antibiotic resistance was noted, with 81.5% resistance to ceftriaxone and 94.4% to chloramphenicol, emphasizing the challenges in treating UTIs.
  • Analysis utilized the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method per CLSI guidelines to determine antibiotic sensitivity of the isolates.
  • Findings indicate that females, particularly those over 49 years, are disproportionately affected by urinary tract infections in this rural context.
