Background & Objective: Urinary tract infection is one of the common infections in the Indian community. Distribution and susceptibility of UTI-causing pathogens change according to time and place. This study aims to analysis present trend of locally prevalent uropathogens and their antibiotic susceptibility for prudent use of antibiotics to combat antimicrobial resistance. Methodology: Total 135 urine samples from suspected UTI was collected from both outdoor and indoor patients during the study period of August 2014 to Jun 2015.Culture and antibiotic sensitivity testing of the isolates were done. At the last, analysis of uropathogen and antibiotic susceptibility pattern was done. Results: Total 54(40%) samples were found to be positive for uropathogen in culture, in which gram negative organisms & gram positive organisms were isolated from 45 (83%) & 9(17%) samples, respectively. The E coli was most common organism isolated. Conclusion: Females are predominantly affected by UTI, with most common uropathogen E coli. Antimicrobial susceptibility pattern shows high sensitivity for Amikacin and levofloxacin compared to other routinely used antibiotics. [Patel R NJIRM 2016; 7(1):47-49]
