Overview

Descriptive cross-sectional study finds high rates of UTIs in young males, highlighting bacterial resistance patterns.

Key Points

  • A significant 23% of young males presented with culture-proven urinary tract infections.
  • Escherichia coli was identified as the predominant pathogen in 72% of cases.
  • Routine urine cultures and responsible antibiotic prescribing are crucial for managing UTIs.
  • Patients experienced high resistance rates, especially against co-trimoxazole (70%).
