It has been estimated that globally symptomatic (UTIS) result in as
many as 7 millions visits to out patient clinic, 1 million visits to
emergency departments, and 100,000 hospitalization annually (5) (chin et
al 2011).
Many different microorganisms can cause urinary tract
infection (UTIS), though the most common pathogens causing the
simple ones in the community are Esherichia Coli and other
Enterobacteriacae, which accounts approximately 75% of the isolates
(Kebira et al, 2009).
In complicated Urinary tract infections and
hospitalized patients, organisms such as Enterococcuss Faecalis and
Highly resistant, gram-ve rods including Pseudomoinas Spp. are
comparatively more common. The relative frequency of the pathogens
varies depending upon age, sex, catheterization and hospitalization.
Urinary
tract infection cases is often started empirically an therapy is based
on information determined from the antimicrobial resistance pattern of
the urinary pathogen. However, a large proportion of uncontrolled
antibiotic usage has contributed to the emergency of resistant
bacterial Infections (7-10). As a result, the prevalence of
antimicrobial resistance among urinary track has been increasing world
wide. (Biadglegene. et al, 2009).
Associated resistance i.e, the fact
that a bacterium resistant to one antibiotics is often much more likely
to be resistant to other antibiotics, drastically decreases the
chances of getting a second empirical attempt right. Resistance rates to
the most common prescribe drugs used in the treatment of (UTI) vary
considerably in different areas, world-wide. The estimation of local
etiology and susceptibility profile could support the most effective
empirical treatment. Therefore, investigating epidemiology of (UTIS),
the prevalence risk factors, are bacterial isolates and antibiotics
sensitivity is fundamental for care givers and health planner to guide
the expected intervention.
OBJECTIVE OF STUDY
Ø The aim of this
study was to determine bacterial etiology agent and evaluate their
invitro susceptibility pattern to commonly used antimicrobial agents.
Ø To identify the bacteria Isolates.
