Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution and drug resistance status of urinary tract infections in diabetics and offer scientific basis for reasonable usage of antibiotics.METHODS Pathogenic bacteria isolated from specimens of 236 cases with urinary tract infections were identified and drug susceptibility tests were performed.RESULTS Among 236 strains of pathogenic bacteria,Escherichia coli rated the top one,59.7%.Then Enterococcus rated the second and accounted for 10.6%.The isolates were susceptible to imipenem and amikacin and showed higher drug-resistance to the other common antibiotics.CONCLUSIONS Diabetics easily suffer from urinary tract infections.Drug-resistance of pathogenic bacteria to antibiotics is higher.Therefore,we should take precautions to control the urinary tract infections in diabetics.
