Overview

Cross-sectional analysis reveals high antibiotic resistance in uropathogens among pediatric patients, emphasizing urgent surveillance needs.

Key Points

  • Alarmingly, some bacterial strains exhibited 100% resistance to commonly used antibiotics like ampicillin.
  • Escherichia coli accounted for 63.7% of pediatric UTI cases, followed by Enterobacter at 19.4%.
  • A cross-sectional descriptive analytical study of 113 children highlighted concerning resistance patterns.
  • Findings call for enhanced surveillance and antibiotic stewardship to combat rising multidrug-resistant infections.
