ABSTRACT:

Objective: The important agent in the urinary tract infection in elder males and young females is coagulase negative staphylococci. Many antibiotics are restricted by these organisms. The purpose of this study is to determine the rate of occurrence and pattern of resistance for this very organism in UTI (Urinary Tract Infections). Methodology: This cross-sectional research work carried out in CMH Sialkot on 167 patients because of symptoms of urinary tract infections. Analysis of urine and cultures of blood carried out in this research work. Results: The isolation of Coagulase Negative Staphylococci carried out from 6.0% cultures. The rate of occurrence of the infection was not different between men, women and other various groups. On the basis of the resistance pattern to antibiotics; 72.50% was resistance to Cefalotin, 62.50% to cotrimoxazole, 60.0% to Penicillin (60%), 55.0% to Nitrofurantoin and Gentamycin, 52.50% to Nalidixic acid, 47.50% to Oxacillin, 45.0% to Cephalexin, 35.0% to Clindamycin, 30.0% to Vancomycin and 2.50% resistance to Ciprofloxacin. Conclusion: There were significant positive cultures (6.0%) and the detection of Urinary Tract Infections because of the coagulase negative staphylococci is very significant because wrong diagnosis can lead to irrelevant therapy. Keywords: Coagulase Negative Staphylococci, Urinary Tract Infections, Therapy, Laboratory, Symptoms, Urine, Antibiotics.
