Abstract

OBJECTIVE To determine the bacterial distribution and resistance status in urinary system infections. METHODS A total of 107 strains collected from inpatient and outpatient urine specimens during Jan 1999-Jan 2003 were identified and the drug resistance test was performed. RESULTS Escherichia coli rated the top one (57.9%), followed with Enterococcus, Proteus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus and fungi. Enterobacteriaceae were showed increasing drug resistance trend, but still sensitive to imipenem (100%). G+-cocci were also showed serious drug resistance trend, but still sensitive to vancomycin (100%). CONCLUSIONS Enterobacteriaceae were the main infectious bacteria in urinary infection. Rational use of antibiotics should be carried out according to urine culture result.
