[Uncomplicated urinary tract infection in women: etiology and antimicrobial resistance].
Revista de la Facultad de Ciencias Médicas 2017 September 11
Our objectives were to determine the etiology and analyze the antibiotic resistance profiles of microorganisms causing uncomplicated urinary tract infections in our setting. An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted. In vitro antimicrobial resistance of urine cultures was analyzed. 580 urine cultures of women over age fifteen were included. 82.6 % of urine cultures corresponded to cystitis and the remaining 17.4 % corresponded to pyelonephritis. 353 urine cultures of women <50 years old (60.9%) and 227 of women = 50 years old (39.1%) were obtained. The most common pathogens were Escherichia coli (85.5 %) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (4.7 %). For Escherichia coli, there was a resistance of 28.6% to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole,7.9% to ciprofloxacin and 0.4% to nitrofurantoin. Significant difference (p = 0.005) was seen in the resistance to ciprofloxacin in women = 50 years old. Our data show there is a low in vitro resistance to nitrofurantoin
