Hypertonic glucose pleurodesis and surgical diaphragmatic repair for tension hydrothorax complicating continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis.

Urinary tract infections (UTI) are a significant problem among populations worldwide. It is mainly associated with the increasing incidence of recurrence, complications and the increasing drug resistance of uropathogens. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the prevalence of resistance among pathogens causing urinary tract infections. The material for the study was data obtained from the Mazovian Specialized Hospital (M.S.H) in Radom over a period of 2 years. Urine was collected from hospitalized patients with UTI. Statistical calculations were performed using statistical software. During the study period, 3,917 patients underwent microbiological examination of urine, and almost 15% of them were found to be infected with UTI. Based on statistical analysis of drug susceptibility of the most common uropathogens, it was shown that urinary tract infections caused by Escherichia coli or Klebsiella pneumoniae, among others, often show high resistance to fluoroquinolones and β-lactam antibiotics. Proteus mirabilis strains have been shown to be more resistant to aminoglycosides and fluoroquinolones than to beta-lactams. In the case of Pseudomonas aeruginisa, resistance to fluoroquinolones predominates. On the other hand, UTI caused by Acientobacter baumannii should be treated based on the results of drug susceptibility testing due to the increasing prevalence of multidrug-resistant strains.
