Deepali A. Gohel, Dr. Anju Dhar*, Soni D. Gupta, Raksha Patel, Rupesh D. Dingankar

ABSTRACT

A urinary tract infection (UTI) is a very common type of infection and it can occur in any part of the urinary system which includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra. Most infections involve the lower urinary tract — the bladder and the urethra. Symptoms typically include needing to urinate often, having pain in lower back of side or burning micturition while urinating .Most of the UTI get treated with Antibiotics. Urinary tract infection is one of the infectious diseases affecting both genders. Women are at greater risk of developing a UTI than are men. Women get UTI up to 30 times more often than men do.Also,as many as 4 in 10 women who get UTI will get at least one more within 6 months.[1] With this background the UTI cases from all over India were studied. In a period of 1 year (2021-2022), a total of 8072 samples were processed and analysed for the prevalence of UTI in India. The present study shows the gender-wise distribution of UTI, among them 35.56% were males and 64.44% were females. In this study the percentage of UTI is common in women in the reproductive age and post-menopausal stage. This study also shows age-wise distribution of UTI as children (55.48%), adults (49.63%) and elderly (53.41%). An analysis of UTI positive culture showed the presence of Escherichia coli, Klebsiella spp, Enterobacter spp, Citrobacter spp, Proteus spp, Pseudomonas spp, Acinetobacter spp, Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus spp. This study also provides the seasonal trend of UTI in India. According to the graph plotted for seasonal trend in UTI, it is found that there is a decrease in percentage positivity of almost all above mentioned organisms in winter season except for organisms Klebsiella spp. and Citrobacter spp. whose percentage increases in the winter season and then decreases in the summer season.
