Abstract:
Objective To explore the common pathogenic bacteria and medication in urinary tract infection in the patients with spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods 240 SCI patients were analyzed retrospectively in China Rehabilitation Research Center from January 2009 to October 2010, who were diagnosed as urinary tract infection (UTIs) according to urine culture and bacterial identification. Results The first 3 positions of pathogenic bacteria were Gram-negative bacteria, such as Escherichia coli (53.8%), Enterococcus (8.9%), and Klebsiella pneumonia (8%), while some patients were followed Gram-positive bacteria and fungal infections. Conclusion The clinically selected antibacterial drugs should be based on the bacterial culture and drug susceptibility test to promote the antibacterial drugs use rationally, frequently changing the medicine and continuing the administration of antibacterial drugs for a long period of time should be avoided.
