Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are counted among the most common infections in children. Most commonly, members of Enterobacteriaceae, particularly urinary pathogenic strains of Escherichia. coli and Enterobacter aerogenes are the primary causative organisms of UTIs in different parts of the world. In spite of the availability and use of the antimicrobial drugs, UTIs caused by bacteria have been showing increasing trends. Antibiotics are a mainstay in the treatment of bacterial infections, though their use is a primary risk factor for the development of antibiotic resistance. Antibiotic resistance is a growing problem in paediatric urology as demonstrated by increased urinary pathogen resistance. The extensive and inappropriate use of antimicrobial agents has invariably resulted in the development of antibiotic resistance which, in recent years, has become a major problem worldwide.

BackgroundUrinary tract infection (UTI) constitutes a common cause of antibiotic use in childhood. Nowadays, there is a growing concern about increasing resistance to antibiotics and emergence of extended spectrum beta lactamase (ESBL) producing uropathogens. The aim of the present study was to report the most common UTI pathogens and their antimicrobial resistance patterns among children in Crete and compare the results in the region with those reported ten years ago.MethodsThis 5-year (2012-2016) retrospective study records the uropathogens and their susceptibility patterns among children 30 days to 16 years old, who were discharged with the diagnosis of UTI from a District General Hospital in Crete. After identification of the bacteria, resistance patterns and presence of extended spectrum beta lactamases (ESBLs) were detected.ResultsUTI was diagnosed in 284 children (62.0% female; mean age 26 months). The occurrence rates of isolated pathogens were Escherichia coli (E. coli) 75.4%, Klebsiella spp 9.15%, Proteus spp 5.28%, Enterobacter spp 3.87% and Pseudomonas aeruginosa 3.52%. Antimicrobial resistance of E. coli was most common to ampicillin (41.8%), piperacillin (40.3%), amoxicillin/clavulanic (28.6%) and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMX) (17.8%). Among E. coli strains, 4.20% were ESBL-producing. Resistance to ampicillin, TMP-SMX and piperacillin was noted for 46.4%, 16.9% and 46.5% of the total uropathogens, respectively, making these agents inappropriate for empirical treatment of febrile UTI in our region. On the other hand, more than 90% of microorganisms were susceptible to ceftriaxone/cefotaxime cefuroxime, and piperacillin/tazobactam, which seem to be effective for treatment of paediatric UTIs.ConclusionsThe antibiotic resistance, although decreasing, is still high in hospitalized children with UTIs in the study area.

ANTIBIOTIC SENSITIVITY PATTERN & CAUSATIVE ORGANISM OF UTI IN CHILDREN IN A TERTIARY CARE HOSPITAL.Introduction:Urinary tract infection is common bacterial infection in children. The changing pattern of antimicrobial sensitivity in UTI demands the use of appropriate antibiotics.Objective: Objective of the study was to detect culture & sensitivity pattern of bacteria implicated in UTI Methods:It was cross sectional study conducted over children aged 6 month-5 year attending in OPD, department of Paediatrics Mymensingh Medical College Hospital from January 2016 to December 2016.Four hundred and fifty urine specimens collected from clinically suspected UTI children were examined by semiquantative culture method & their sensitivity pattern were determined by disc diffusion technique.Results: Of the 450 tested sample 99 samples showed growth of pathogens among which the most prevalent were E.coli 74(75%)followed by klebsiela pneumoniae 9(9.9%) and enterococci 6( 6%). Majority were isolate from female 70 (69%) while the remainig are from male. Imipenem , Meropenem , amikacin, nitrofurantoin, gentamycin and amoxyclav are found to be effective against 75-100% of the uropathogens. Most effective antibiotic in our study were imipenem,meropenem, amikacin and nitrofurantoin which show their efficacy against 91-100% isolates. More than 60% case show their resistance against amoxycillin, nalidexic acid,cefixime,ciproflaxacine, cotrimoxazole and cephalosporin which raises the question regarding rationality to empirically use of these antibiotics in UTI without culture & sensitivity reports..Conclusion: This study conclude that common urinary isolates were more sensitive to imipenem, , meropenem, amikacin and nitrofurantoin in comparison to other antibiotics in this region.

"In May 2015, the Sixty-eighth World Health Assembly adopted the Global action plan on antimicrobial resistance, which reflects the global consensus that AMR poses a profound threat to human health. One of the five strategic objectives of the Global action plan is to strengthen the evidence base through enhanced global surveillance and research. The Global Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance System (GLASS) has been developed to facilitate and encourage a standardized approach to AMR surveillance globally and in turn support the implementation of the Global action plan on antimicrobial resistance. This manual addresses the early phase of implementation of GLASS, focussing on surveillance of resistance in common human bacterial pathogens. The intended readership of this publication is public health professionals and health authorities responsible for national AMR surveillance. It outlines the GLASS standards and describes the road map for implementation of the system between 2015 and 2019. Further development of GLASS will be based on the lessons learnt during this period"--Publisher's description.

Complicated urinary tract infections (cUTIs) are a major cause of hospital admissions and are associated with significant morbidity and health care costs. Knowledge of baseline risk of urinary tract infection can help clinicians make informed diagnostic and therapeutic decisions. Prevalence rates of UTI vary by age, gender, race, and other predisposing risk factors. In this regard, this book provides comprehensive information on etiology, epidemiology, immunology, pathology, pathogenic mechanisms, symptomatology, investigation and management of urinary tract infection. Chapters cover common problems in urinary tract infection and put emphasis on the importance of making a correct clinical decision and choosing the appropriate therapeutic approach. Topics are organized to address all of the major complicated conditions frequently seen in urinary tract infection. The authors have paid particular attention to urological problems like the outcome of patients with vesicoureteric reflux, the factors affecting renal scarring, obstructive uropathy, voiding dysfunction and catheter associated problems. This book will be indispensable for all professionals involved in the medical care of patients with urinary tract infection.

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a problem so common and so significant in routine clinical practice that accurate diagnostics are especially important. In particular, complicated UTI is associated with an increased rate of therapy failures, as a result of possible biofilm formation on foreign elements and antibiotic resistance, as well as the increased possibility of an infection recurrence. These are the arguments for the constant search for novel diagnostic tools and techniques. These and many other vital topics regarding UTI complications, management, and treatment, in addition to antibiotic resistance and bacterial virulence traits allowing us to mitigate or avoid antibiotic action, are presented in this book.
