Bacteria Associated With Urinary Tract Infections, Antimicrobial Resistance Profiles, and Associated Factors Among Diabetes Mellitus Patients at Debre Tabor Comprehensive Specialized Hospital, Northwest Ethiopia

Key Points

• This research aims to examine the types of bacteria causing urinary tract infections in diabetic patients and their resistance to antibiotics.
• Conducted in a hospital setting among diabetic patients
• Analyzed the prevalence of significant bacteriuria
• Evaluated antimicrobial resistance patterns of bacterial isolates
• High prevalence of significant bacteriuria was noted among diabetic patients
• Bacterial isolates showed moderately high resistance to commonly used antimicrobials
• Recommendations for regular monitoring of antimicrobial resistance trends were made
