1Service d'urologie, CHRU Bretonneau, 2, boulevard Tonnellé, 37044 Tours cedex, France; PRES centre Val-de-Loire université, université François-Rabelais de Tours, 37000 Tours, France.
Objective:
To define the general use of anti-infectious treatments in urology.
Materials And Methods:
A review of national guidelines and articles published on the subject in the Medline database, selected by keywords, depending on the scientific relevance was performed.
Results:
While the epidemiology clearly shows the non-reduction of the anti-infectious treatments use in France, the resistance increases to highlight foo-resistant germs. Urology is not an exception to this observation, and different means are set to improve the prescription made by urologists.
Conclusion:
The epidemiological observation confirms the urgent need to improve the prescription of anti-infectious treatments particularly in urology.
