Identificación del Agente Microbiano Causante de Infecciones Urinarias dn Pacientes Internos Sometidos a Cateterismo Vesical

Abstract

The high incidence of infections of the urinary tract in men and women undergoing bladder catheterization of the 18 and 35years of age conducted this study towards the identification of microbial agents involved in this disease. Being the gender male 12 representing the 30.0% and 28 are female representing the 70.0%. Urinary tract infections are can be subdivided into two main anatomical categories: infection of the upper tract (prostatitis and urethritis) and the lower infection (cystitis). In most cases, the growth of more 100.000 UFC /ml is clinically important in patients undergoing catheterization, were unable to identify the microbes that cause urinary infections in inpatients undergoing bladder catheterization are bacteria gram-negative, identified by microbiological protocols, it could be observed in this population who in 30 patients identified Escherichia coli representing 75% and 10 patients were identified Klebsiella pneumoniae is 25%. It is important and necessary to know the etiology, bacterial in these patients.
