Etiology and Antimicrobial Sensitivity Profile of the Microorganism Associated With Urinary Tract Infections
Journal Title: International Journal of Pharmaceutical Science Invention - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 4
Abstract
This study proposes to meet the most common aetiologic agents in urinary tract infection and the antimicrobial susceptibility pattern. We analyzed all bacteriological examinations of urine recorded in Central Laboratory do Piauí-LACEN situated in the municipality of Teresina-PI of patients seen in December 2013 period through April 2014. It was observed that were filed during the designated period urine, 1647. Of these, 109 were positive cultural examination. Escherichia coli was the most isolated microorganism (71.6%), followed by the genus Klebsiella (14.7%), by Pseudomonas aeruginosa (2.8) and Proteus mirabilis (1.8%). In relation to antimicrobial susceptibility, Escherichia coli and Klebsiella spp feature high resistance to antimicrobials Amoxicillin, Piperacilina, Cephalotin, Ceftazidime and Quinolones. To the Enterobacteria in study, Imipeneme, Netilmicin and Amikacin were the antimicrobials with higher degree of susceptibility. In respect of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates, antimicrobials were more effective, the Imipeneme and Amikacin. In this way, the need to periodically reviews the ITU for being a promising environment for bacterial infection and to understand the evolution of antimicrobial susceptibilities, for part of the main etiological agents, over time.
