Urinary Tract Infection
The most common community- and hospitalacquired infections
In USA
• 7 million clinic visits, 100,000 admissions,
cost > $1 billion annually
•15% community prescribed antibiotic for UTI
UTI in female
•Affect 20% of women 20- 56 y/o per annum
•25%–30% recurrent UTI not related to
functional or anatomical abnormality
Importance of UTI
• In-hospital mortality of UTI: 15%
• associated with bacteremia, advanced age,
severity and underlying diseases
Changing Etiology of UTI
• Gram-positive bacteria
• Drug resistant Gram-negative bacilli
• GNB other than E. coli, KP, Proteus
• Prominent Candida in nosocomial UTI
Pathogenesis
• Urinary stasis
• Obstruction
• P fimbriae
• Sticky epithelial cells
• Atrophic epithelium
E. coli (Ascending infection)
S. aureus (Hematogenous
spread)
Classification of UTI
• Complicated versus uncomplicated UTI
• Upper versus lower urinary tract UTI
• Suprapubic pain, dysuria, frequency
• Fever >38oC, chills, flank pain
• High risk for upper or complicated UTI
• Diabetes, pregnancy, immunosuppression,
previous APN, symptoms > 14 days,
structural abnormality of urinary tract
Complicated or Uncomplicated?
 Uncomplicated
UTI: in patients with normal
structural and functional urinary tract.
 Complicated
UTI: in patients with anatomical,
functional, or metabolic defects of the urinary
tract, or altered host defenses.

Renal abscess, diabetes, infective stone, reflux,
pregnancy, catheter-related …
Emphysematous Pyelonephritis
Risk factors for UTI
• Female
• History of past UTI
• Sexual intercourse
• Neurogenic bladder
• Diabetes, menopause, GU tract abnormality,
lack of circumcision, homosexual, AIDS…
UTI Needs Work-up
• Frequent attacks (3 in a year) in women
• Male first attack
• Age < 15 y/o or > 55 y/o (without urine retention)
• Urosepsis, septic shock or organ failure
• Poor response to antibiotics (>7 days)
• Hematuria
Incidence of APN per
10,000 person-years, USA.
Czaja CA, et al. Clin Infect Dis 2007; 45:273–80.
Etiology: Community UTI
• E. coli: 75-90%
• Enterococcus, Staph. saprophyticus : 5-15%
• Klebsiella, Proteus and others : 5-10%
• 30% polymicrobial infections
• Nursing home: Pseudomonas, enterococcus
or Candida
N Engl J Med 2003;349:259-66
Etiology: Hospital-Acquired UTI
• E. coli, KP, Proteus : 41%
• Enterobacter, Serratia, Morganella : 25%
• Pseudomonas aeruginosa : 21%
• Candida albicans 16%
• Enterococcus 14%
• Staphylococcus spp. : 13%
N Engl J Med 2003;349:259-66
Hospital-acquired UTI
• >40% of all hospital-acquired infections
• Almost catheter-associated
develops in 25% if urinary catheter for > 7 days
• An nosocomial UTI add $500-1,000 cost of
hospitalization

Clinical Presentations
Lower UTI (cystitis, urethritis)
•
•
Dysuria, frequency, urgency, suprapubic pain...
Low grade fever or absent
APN
•
•
Lower UTI s/s; flank pain, fever, nausea, vomit
Systemic toxic sign; CV angle knocking pain.
Prostatitis
•
•
Fever, voiding discomfort, perineum/rectum pain
Prostate massage contraindicated if acute prostatitis

The most reliable is urinary symptoms
*Clean-catch urine, >100,000 CFU/mL specificity
*頻尿、解尿、灼熱疼痛或有分泌物、腰痛、發燒
泌尿道感染
• Asymptomatic bacteriuria:無症狀菌尿症
No treatment is indicated except…
• Pregnant woman after second trimester
• During or after urological procedure
• Severe immunocompromised hosts
• Caution while sampling:收集尿液需知
• Voiding urine: mid-stream(中段尿液送檢)
• Catheterized urine: don’t use the urine in bag
Urine dipstick test: Nitrate
Nitrate to nitrite
Proteus, Providentia, Morganella, Klebsiella.
Negative:
•
Nitrate reductase-negative bacteria (Enterococci, S.
saprophyticus, Acinetobacter, Pseudomonas).
•
•
•
Elevated urobilinogen levels, vitamin C
Too dilute of urine
Longer processing time
Urine culture
•
Routine culture not necessary in uncomplicated cystitis
•
Midstream urine specimens
- Asymtomatic women : with >105 CFU/ml.
- Symptomatic women with pyuria : with 102 to104 /ml.
- Males, G(+) and fungi : > 103 /ml.
•
Catheter or suprapubic aspirate: 102 to 104 /ml
•
Low bacteria counts: lower UTI, early infection, urethritis,
vaginitis, high urea/osmolarity, low pH
•
•
False (-) : obstruction, antimicrobial use, diuresis
False (+) : delay processing

Management
•
Asymptomatic bacteriuria : treat only in
