Sažetak
Altogether 301 patients with urosepsis were hospitalized at the University Hospital for Infectious Diseases "Dr Fran Mihaljevic" in Zagreb during 2009, comprising a total of 47% patients with sepsis. These were mostly cases of secondary, community acquired sepsis, often a consequence of complicated and recurrent urinary tract infections (UTI). Mostly elderly patients (223; 74%) were hospitalized, older than 60 years of age, with some of the risk factors present in over 60% of cases. The disease occurred more frequently in women (68,44%). Enterobacteria were isolated in 276 (62,30%) samples, most commonly E.coli (41,76%), K. pneumoniae (9,54%) and P. mirabilis (8,35%). Enterobacterial resistance to co-amoxiclav was 11,96%, ceftriaxone 17,75%, cefuroxime 20,29%, ciprofloxacin 25,72%, gentamicin 13,04%, co-trimoxazole 37,32% and nitrofurantoin 25%. The resistance of a single most common pathogen, E.coli, was within expected levels, to amoxicilin 58,70%, co-trimoxazole 29,19%, co-amoxiclav 4,32% with intermediate susceptibility of 10,27% and to ciprofloxacin 16,22%. The therapy in the majority of patients was started as empirical, parenteral, and was continued according to antibiogram results, so that the most commonly administered drug was co-amoxiclav and II and III generation cephalosporins. The majority of urosepsis cases were classified as moderately severe sepsis in 74%, while septic shock was recorded in 18% of patients. In the majority of patients the outcome of treatment was favorable, so that 87% of patients were discharged from hospital as improved or cured, while 13% of the patients died.
