ABSTRACT
background. Several studies have shown a high prevalence of multidrug resistance to antibiotics in community-acquired
uropathogenic
Escherichia coli. The prevalence of resistant isolates is variable in different regions and it is important to
conduct surveillance studies to select empirical treatment.
material and method. We studied 767 isolates of community-acquired uropathogenic
Escherichia coli from Dr. Ignacio
Chavez Medical Center (ICMC), San Jose Hospital (SJH), and Children’s Hospital of Sonora (CHS) of the City of Hermosillo,
over a one year period (2008-2009). Identification tests and antibiotics susceptibility assays were performed using Vitek2
and MicroScan systems. The detection of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL) production was determined by means
of double disk synergy with and without clavulanate.
results. The highest antibiotic resistance rates were observed to sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim, aminopenicillin-inhibitor,
and cefazolin, with accumulated 54.4%, 37.0%, and 21.5%, respectively. In contrast, the lowest resistance rates were
observed against nitrofurantoin (0.0-11.3%), and cefoxitin (9.9%). Around 15% of the isolates were ESBL producers.
conclusions. There was a high antibiotic resistance rate to sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim, aminopenicillin-inhibitor, and
cefazolin in the isolates of community-acquired uropathogenic
E. coli tested. In the bacteria isolates from HSJH and ICMC
there was a high prevalence of fluoroquinolone resistance. The results obtained from this study are cause for epidemiological
concern, and require a strict follow-up in the coming years.
