Brief Summary

ABSTRACT
Introduction:
Urinary tract infecĀtion (UTI) is known as bacterial growth in the typically
sterile urinary tract (kidney and/or bladder). UTIs are among the most common
bacterial infections encountered in clinical practice, with their causative
agents and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns varying by region and over
time.
Aim: To
study the prevalence and current antibiotic susceptibility patterns of
different types of bacteria causing urinary tract infection.
Materials
and Methods: An observational, cross-sectional study will
be conducted at Government Medical College and Hospital, Patiala, Punjab.
Randomized data of 340 urine culture and antimicrobial sensitivity reports will
be taken from the Department of Microbiology. The observations will be recorded
as per the Performa attached and will be subjected to statistical analysis, and
compare with the data already available in accessible literature.
Clinical
Significance: The findings from this study will provide updated insights into the
regional epidemiology of uropathogens and their resistance profiles, aiding in
the formulation of effective empirical treatment strategies and antibiotic
policies. |
