Urinary Tract Infection in Patients with Diabetes Mellitus

Abstract: Background: urinary tract infections (UTI) are one of the most common types of bacterial infection in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). There are certain aspects to diabetes that makes it a risk factor for getting urinary tract infection and additionally, diabetes may also predispose to certain complications. Methodology: in this paper we aim to carry out a systematic review on observational (nonrandomized) studies on PUBMED. Aim: to evaluate the prevalence, pathogenesis, diagnosis, management and complica… Show more

“…Patients with diabetes are at high risk of urinary tract infections (UTI) and its complications especially in patients with Type-2 diabetes. A survey reported UTI to be the most common microbial infection worldwide 4. Globally, it was estimated about 150 million people each year affected from this infection.…”

“…Similarly risk of UTI increases with age, poor metabolic control, various impairments in the immune system and incomplete bladder emptying due to autonomic neuropathy 6,7. The most contributed pathogen of UTIs is Escherichia coli in diabetic and non diabetic patients and others are Klebsiella pneumonia (K.pn), Staphylococcus saprophyticus, Proteus mirabilis, Enterococcus faecalis, Group-B Streptococcus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Candida spp, and Staphylococcus aureus 4. The microbes causing infection differ in their susceptibility towards antimicrobial drugs from place to place 6,10.…”

“…Meanwhile, antibiotic sensitivity is a primary concern in the treatment of patients with infection. Patients with diabetes are prone to have an infection, commonly urinary tract infection because of the impaired immune response, dysfunctional bladder, and other mechanisms (Alrwithey et al 2017). Other studies demonstrated that diabetic patients with urinary tract infections are vulnerable to have resistant pathogens as the causative agent (Nitzan et al 2015).…”
