Urinary tract infection is among the most common nosocomial and community acquired infections. The Information on prevailing levels of antimicrobial resistance among common pathogens that associated with urinary tract infection is useful in making an appropriate choice of empiric therapy .

Resistance to antibiotic treatment in patients with urinary tract infections (UTIs) is a representative example of the increasing problem of antimicrobial resistance. Extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) has emerged as an important mechanism of resistance in Gram-negative bacteria.

Bacterial production of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL) significantly reduces the efficacy of the most commonly used beta-lactam antibiotics for the empiric therapy of infections caused by putative Gram-negative .

Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamase (ESBL) is derived from the mutated beta-lactamase enzyme, Beta-lactamase is an enzyme produced by bacteria that acts to inactivate beta-lactam class of antibiotics .

Extended Spectrum Beta-Lactamase is most commonly produced by the Enterobacteriaceae group, especially Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumonia.

ESBL-producing bacteria can also be resistant to the antibiotics class of aminoglycoside, fluoroquinolone, tetracycline, chloramphenicol, and sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim.

The presence of ESBL-producing bacteria in an infection can result in treatment failure. Antibiotic resistance causes a decrease in the effectiveness of treatment, increases transmission of infection, increases mortality, and increases the cost of health care, while the discovery of new antibiotics is getting less and less

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The aim of this study is to indicate the spread of extended spectrum beta lactamase producing gram negative bacteria ( that isolated from the urine of patients with urinary tract infections based on their susceptibility to antimicrobial agents )

    This study will be conducted on a group of patients who are diagnosed that have urinary tract infections .

    • Methods of the study:

    Antibiotic susceptibility will be examined on disk diffusion test on Mueller-Hinton agar (MHA) . The zones of growth inhibition around each of the antibiotic disks are measured to the nearest millimeter

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  2. The aim of this study is to indicate the spread of extended spectrum beta lactamase producing gram negative bacteria ( that isolated from the urine of patients with urinary tract infections based on their susceptibility to antimicrobial agents )

    This study will be conducted on a group of patients who are diagnosed that have urinary tract infections .

    • Methods of the study:

    Antibiotic susceptibility will be performed by automated method Vitek -2 system that measured by minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) .

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Urinary Tract Infections, run by Sohag University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Dec 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Mayada S Amin (01098839535, maiada011200@med.sohag.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The aim of this study is to indicate the spread of extended spectrum beta lactamase producing gram negative bacteria ( that isolated from the urine of patients with urinary tract infections based on their susceptibility to antimicrobial agents ) (time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Dec 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
