Аннотация
OBJECTIVE: To identify frequency of uropathogenic Escherichia coli and its antibiotic susceptibility pattern.
METHODS: This cross-sectional study was conducted at Khyber Teaching Hospital, Peshawar, Pakistan, from January 2014 to September 2015, and comprised urine specimens. Biochemical techniques were used to identify Escherichia coli and antibiotic susceptibility was determined by Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion and minimum inhibitory concentration methods. SPSS 23 was used for data analysis.
RESULTS: Of the 787 urine samples, 458(58.2%) grew significant positive growths. Escherichia coli growths were present in 351(76.6%) positive cultures of which 108(30.8%) came from males and 243(69.2%) from female patients. Resistance to fluoroquinolones tested was almost similar (p>0.05). Escherichia coli was highly sensitive to imipenem (98.6%), meropenem (97.8%), tazobactum (96.2%), cefoperazone+sulbactam (93.9%) and amikacin(92.5%).
CONCLUSIONS: Escherichia coli was a common pathogen causing urinary tract infections and was highly sensitive to imipenem, meropenem, tazobactum, cefoperazone+sulbactam and amikacin.
