RESUMEN

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of the most important issues in modern medicine. In developing countries, the use of antibiotics is a common practice, and due to this, antibiotic resistance has increased. The objective of this research was to update and report on the microbiological profile of urinary tract infections based on the number of positive urine cultures (UCs), resistance, sensitivity, and the prevalence of bacterial strains. The results were obtained from the database of a tertiary medical facility in Western Mexico. The number of positive UCs was 1769 from inpatients and outpatients who were users of medical services in the hospital from January to December of 2017. The most commonly isolated microorganism was E. coli, with 1225 cases, of which 603 (49.2%) were ESBL (Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase-producing bacteria) strains. The resistance rate of nitrofurantoin was 36.6%, and meropenem showed the most promising results with a resistance rate of only 7.1%. Resistances to quinolones and cephalosporins among the isolates investigated were 51%-67%. Based on our results, it is necessary to increase controls and to improve management protocols in order to achieve better medical practices by reducing antibiotic resistance.
