Abstract

Objective: The objective is to develop an algorithm of initial antimicrobial treatment of urinary tract infection (UTI) concidering the etiological factor Enterococcus faecalis, having spontaneous resistance to cephalosporins.

Methods: The analysis of 6438 results of urine bacteriological examination of children with UTI, having received the treatment in multi-field children’s hospital for 9 years, and clinical manifestations of UTI associated with E. faecalis in 181 patients was carried out. Addirionally, antimicrobial susceptibility testing was carried out in 60 cultures of E. faecalis.

Results: E. faecalis is occurred to be the second etiological factor of UTI in order of importance in children and had high priority in its development in newborns. The detected diagnostic markers of UTI associated with E. faecalis, and its antimicrobial susceptibility are represented in the author-developed algorithm of the initial antimicrobial treatment.

Conclusions: The algorithm of the initial antimicrobial treatment of UTI caused by E. faecalis will help to prescribe a sustainable, early antimicrobial treatment at the stage of microbe identification.
