インドにおける5年間のレトロスペクティブ研究：尿路感染症の抗生物質耐性の動向

Analysis of 135 culture-positive urinary tract infection (UTI) cases at a tertiary care center to evaluate trends in antibiotic resistance is of interest. escherichia coli remained the most prevalent uropathogen, followed by Klebsiella and Pseudomonas species. Resistance to commonly used antibiotics like ciprofloxacin and ampicillin increased significantly over the years, while sensitivity to nitrofurantoin and fosfomycin remained relatively preserved. A worrying rise in multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains was noted, particularly among hospitalized patients. Thus, the need for region-specific antibiotic stewardship to curb escalating resistance patterns is shown.
