A study conducted at Souro Sanou University Hospital in Burkina Faso aimed to understand the antibiotic susceptibility profiles of uropathogenic bacteria in both community and hospital-based urinary tract infections (UTIs). The study found that Enterobacterales were the most common isolates in both settings, followed by non-fermentative Gram-negative bacteria and Gram-positive cocci. The predominant pathogens were Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Enterobacter spp. The study also revealed variations in antibiotic susceptibility between hospital and community strains, with penicillins showing diminished efficacy and resistance to fluoroquinolones increasing. The researchers suggested that a combination of aminoglycosides and third-generation cephalosporins could be an effective therapy for UTIs. [Extracted from the article]
