Resistencia a ciprofloxacino en infecciones del tracto urinario por escherichia coli

Abstract

Introduction: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is characterized by a significant increase in pathogenic microorganisms in a urine sample obtained sterilely. More than 95% of urinary tract infections (UTIs) are caused by a single bacterial species, with Echerichia coli (E. coli) responsible for 75-95% of cases of acute uncomplicated cystitis. From 2018 to 2020, it is estimated that 0.7% of outpatient consultations, equivalent to 7 million annual consultations by women, are related to urinary tract infections. Women report an annual prevalence of 10.8%. Its diagnosis is based on agar dilution methods, molecular techniques and CHROMagar Orientation. General objective: To carry out a review of the literature on resistance to ciprofloxacin in urinary tract infections due to Echerichia Coli. Methodology: databases such as Pubmed, Scielo, Scopus and Science Direct were used, applying advanced search to compile 16 useful articles from the last 6 years with great relevance for this review Expected results with this work it is expected to contribute to clinical practice by providing information relevant to ciprofloxacin resistance in urinary tract infection due to Escherichia coli.
