DETECTION OF BACTERIAL PATHOGENS CAUSING URINARY TRACT INFECTION AND STUDY THEIR SUSCEPTIBILITY TO ANTIBIOTICS AT ASUQ- ALSHUKH HOSPITAL IN THE PROVINCE OF DHI -QAR

This study of urinary tract infection has been planned to isolation and identification of bacterial pathogens. The urine were collected from 60 patients for aSuq- Alshukh hospitals they were including 23 male and 37 female . Patients aged between 15 to 70 years. Urine culture had been done for all the 60 patients who were included in this study . Only 45 patients had positive urine culture they were including 15 male and 30 females . The most common organism wasEsherichia coli which was isolated from 14 patients with percentage of 31.1% .E.coli was the most prevalent followed by Proteus mirabilis 22.2% (10), Pseudomonasaeruginosa 15.5% (7) ,Staphylococcus aureus 11.1% (5) , Klebsiella pneumonia13.3 % (4) , Staph.saprophyticus 4.4% (2) and Serratiamarcescenes 2.2% (1) . The antibiotics susceptibility test was done for all isolates to 8 antibiotics , Amikacin was more antibiotic that effect on all kinds of isolate , the sensitivity of isolates to this antibiotic was registered (95.7%) followed by Ciprofloxacin (80.7%) , while the highest resistant of all isolates was to Amoxicillin , it was registered (9.2%) .
