Abstract: In this study, the bacterial etiologic agents for urinary tract infections were identified, and there in vitro resistance/susceptibility patterns to routinely used antimicrobial drugs in Shri Mahant Indiresh Hospital were assessed.
Methods: Over the course of six months, this observational prospective study was carried out at the medical ward of the Shri Mahant Indiresh Hospital in Dehradun. It identifies the bacterial pathogen that causes urinary tract infections and the pathogen's pattern of antibiotic sensitivity.
Results: Total 100 patients was enrolled in this study, this study found 85% females and 15% was male. Group of 21-30 year were found to be more susceptible for UTI. Escherichia coli are (87%) mostly cause urinary tract infection, then Klebsiella pneumonia (7%), Pseudomonas (3%), Proteus vulgaris (2%) and Staphylococcus (1%). E.coli. It is highly sensitive for Amikacin 66%, Piperacillin 83% and Nitrofurantoin 87% and resistance for ampicilline-90%, Gentamicine-78%, and Doxycyclin-70%.
Conclusion: We observed in this study suggest that E.coli was responsible for majority of UTI second is Klebsiella pneumonia. E.coli is most sensitive for Nitrofurantoin, Piperacillin and resistance for Ampicillin, Gentamicin and Doxycyclin. Antibiotic use should be monitored and administered in the right amounts and in right time to prevent or reduce antibiotic resistance.
