Abstract

Background: Since antibiotical treatment for Urinary Tract Infection should be based on an incident epidemiology and uropathological resistance pattern, this study aims to nominate the sample of active bacteria resistance in Urinary Tract. Materials and Methods: This descriptive-episodic study has been accomplished in Tehran-Iran in 2013. In this study sensitivity was determined by diffusion disk assay for treatment in Urinary Tract Infection diseases has been taken into account. Demographic and past medical history was collected by a questionnaire. Results: in our study 372 patients include 308 female and 64 males the highest resistance were seen in cotrimoxazol (51.8%) and cephalexin (39%). The highest sensitivity respectively was seen in using of ciprofloxacin (68%), in pregnant period, the highest sensitivity in using of ciprofloxacin and the highest resistance were seen in cotrimoxazol. Conclusions: in this study was showed E.Coli is the most common microorganism in urinary tract infection,
