ABSTRACT
Background. Escherichia coli is isolated from 59.7% to 72% of cases of urinary tract infections. In patients with
disability, the employ of disposable diapers, and the difficulty to perform a correct genital hygiene are factors
that contribute to increase the degree of periurethral contamination that predisposes to a higher rate of microbial
colonization of the urinary tract.
Material and Methods. It was performed a prospective, observational, descriptive study in pediatric patients with
disability treated as outpatient in pediatric surgery, pediatric urology or pediatrics, from January 1, 2010 to January
1, 2012. Statistical analysis was conducted with measures of central tendency, and frequencies.
Results. Most commonly isolated microbiological agents belonged to the Enterobacteriaceae family, mainly:
Escherichia
coli 209 (41.8%),
Proteus 93 (18%), and
Klebsiella 39 (7.8%).
conclusions. The percentage of colonization by
Escherichia coli does not increase in the urinary tract of children
with disabilities and it is equal to the population without disabilities.
