ABSTRACT

In our country, urinary tract infections (UTIs) are the most common. The age groups most affected are children, sexually active and pregnant women, and senior citizens. The most frequent causal agent is Escherichia coli and presents changes in its profiles of sensitivity and resistance. A multicenter study of Escherichia’s coli samples, isolated from patients’ urine with diagnoses of acute infection of low urinary tract was carried out in Mexico city
