“…In the present study the Klebsiella pneumonia was the second most isolated pathogen next to Escherichia coli which was in accordance with the studies conducted in other part of the world (Khameneh et al, 2009;Chin et al, 2011). In this study UTI occurred more common in females than in males.…”

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is the infection that occurs in the urinary tract by the invasion of pathogenic bacteria, fungi, virus etc. under some circumstances only. Some common pathogenic bacteria associated with UTI include Escherichia coli, Proteus spp., Streptococcus spp., Staphylococcus spp., Pseudomonas spp. In the ongoing research work, about 30 UTI patients were selected randomly to detect the pathogen responsible for causing urinary tract infection and also to demonstrate their drug resistant traits. Among the 30 samples, about 14 samples were found to harbor Proteus spp. (1×104 cfu/ml to 1×105 cfu/ml). Escherichia coli was found to be the second predominant agent for UTI and recovered from 13 samples. Among the rest 3 samples, Pseudomonas spp. was found in 2 samples and Klebsiella spp. was found in one sample. Identified isolates showed resistance against different ranges of antibiotics. The study findings revealed the fact that emerging drug resistance of different pathogenic bacteria could become the major difficulties in the treatment of infectious diseases like UTI.Stamford Journal of Microbiology, Vol.6(1) 2016: 34-38

“…26 Chronic or long-term urinary catheterization was defined as catheterization for more than 7 days prior to specimen collection for bacterial culturing. 27 A urological abnormality was defined as either the presence of urinary tract obstructions, urethral strictures, urolithiasis, benign prostate hyperplasia, congenital abnormalities, or functional problems such as neurogenic bladder or vesicoureteral reflux. A shock episode was defined as a systolic pressure <90 mmHg or the use of inotropic agents to maintain blood pressure for at least 1 hour.…”
