OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution and drug resistance status to pathogens from urinary tract and offer scientific evidence for reasonable usage of antibiotics.METHODS Totally 389 isolates derived from infected urinary tract in mountain area of western Hubei Province from 2002 to 2005 were identified and antibiotic susceptibility test was performed.RESULTS Escherichia coli accounted for 66.1% ranking the first.The isolates were all susceptible to imipenem and vancomycin.The ratio of ESBLs in E.coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae was 23.7% and 25.9%,respectively.CONCLUSIONS The drug resistance rate in isolates derived from infected urinary tract of patients in mountain area was lower than in plain region of Hubei Province.
