Caracterización microbiológica de la infección de vías urinarias en pacientes pediátricos. Riobamba, 2022

ABSTRACT: Urinary tract infection is the second cause of morbidity in childhood worldwide. It is essential to determine the etiology through the antibiogram since there is a diversity of microorganisms that act as causal agents to establish an adequate treatment and avoid resistance. Antimicrobial. This study aims to establish the microbiological characterization of urinary tract infections in pediatric patients in Riobamba 2022. This research is developed through a descriptive, retrospective cross-sectional study based on data collection from pediatric patients admitted to the Pediatric service of the General Hospital IESS Riobamba with a diagnosis of UTI between August 2021 and September 2022. Sixty-two cases of urinary tract infection were presented. It was demonstrated that the population with the highest incidence of involvement was school-age patients (59.7%), with an incidence in the female gender of 90.3%. Furthermore, in 9.7 males, the causal agent with the highest prevalence of the disease was Escherichia coli (79%). ESBL positive (12.9%), the leading risk factor was for the female gender between 1-12 years (88.7 %), and the drug used as the first line was Ceftriaxone 33.9% and 29% for amikacin. This research determined that urinary tract infection in pediatric patients at the IESS Riobamba Hospital is predominantly caused by Escherichia coli, whose primary antimicrobial resistance is to penicillin + IBL, sulfonamides, first and second-generation cephalosporins.
