Introduction: Urinary tract infection is one of the most frequent public health problems in the world and concerns all ages. Objective: To describe the epidemiological, clinical and biological profile of urinary tract infection in the internal medicine unit of the Fousseyni Daou hospital in Kayes. Methodology: It was a descriptive and cross-sectional study with retrospective data collection which took place from January 1 to December 31, 2020 at the Internal Medicine Unit of the Fousseyni Daou Hospital in Kayes. It covered all outpatients and hospitalized patients presenting with a urinary tract infection during the study period. Results: We identified 79 cases of urinary tract infection out of 145 requests for ECBU, that is a positivity rate of 53.10% and out of a total of 1883 admissions that is a hospital prevalence of 4.19%. The age groups of 36 to 45 years and 46 to 55 years were more represented in 28 cases (35.44%) and 25 cases (31.64%) with an average age of 45 years ± 10. The female sex was predominant, 42 cases (53.16%) with a sex ratio of 0.88. Housewives were more represented 28 cases (34.44%). The majority of patients resided in rural areas 49 cases (62.03%). The history was dominated by the following pathologies: hypertension 48.10%, diabetes 36.70% and gastropathy 30.37%. The main clinical manifestations were: Urinary burning 67 cases (84.81%), Dysuria 65 cases (82.27%), Pelvic pain 59 cases (74.68%), Fever 57 cases (72.15%). The epidemiological profile of the isolated strains was dominated by enterobacteriaceae, followed by gram-positive cocci and gram-negative bacilli. The main bacteria responsible for urinary tract infections in order of frequency: Escherichia coli (45.56%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (11.39%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (8.86%), Staphylococcus aureus (7.59%), Streptococcus sp (6.33%), Enterobacter cloacae (3.79%), Acinetobacter sp (3.79%). The study of the susceptibility and resistance profiles of the isolated strains showed significant sensitivity of enterobacteriaceae to colistin and resistance to amoxicillin and to the amoxicillin + clavulanic acid combination. Conclusion: Urinary tract infections are a major public health problem since they are responsible for significant morbidity and mortality and a high cost of care. Knowledge of the epidemiological-clinical and bacteriological profile of these infections is essential for efficient management.

Urinary Tract Infection Epidemiology Clinic Bacteriology Internal Medicine Fousseyni Daou Hospital Kayes Mali

1. Introduction

Urinary tract infection (UI) is one of the most frequent bacterial infections and constitutes a major public health problem [1] . Urinary tract infections are common in both community and hospital settings. The frequency of urinary tract infections is estimated at 150 million cases per year worldwide [2] . They represent the second site of community bacterial infection after the respiratory tract and the first site of nosocomial infections [2] .

Symptoms and clinical signs consistent with a urinary tract infection can be diversified, ranging from functional urinary signs such as pollakiuria or urinary burning, to non-specific symptoms such as fever, chills, malaise, psychomotor slowing, confusion in the elderly [3] .

The diagnosis is based on the cytobacteriological examination of the urine which imposes rigorous conditions for sampling, storage, production and interpretation [3] .

The treatment is essentially based on the administration of antibiotics either probabilistically according to epidemiological data, or guided by the results of the cytobacteriological examination of the urine. Nevertheless, the known failures with probabilistic treatment are becoming increasingly worrying [4] . The emergence and spread of resistance pose a major public health problem, the control of which is a challenge for clinicians, microbiologists, hygienists and health authorities [5] .

The identification of the germs involved and the study of their sensitivity to antibiotics constitute the basis of any effective therapy [4] [5] .

We found no work relating to the epidemiological, clinical and bacteriological profile of urinary tract infection in the internal medicine unit of the Fousseyni Daou hospital in Kayes.

Thus, we carried out this work in order to describe these different aspects to contribute to the improvement of the management of urinary tract infection.

2. Methodology

It was a descriptive study with retrospective data collection which took place from January 1 to December 31, 2020 at the Internal Medicine Unit of the Fousseyni Daou Hospital in Kayes. Were included: all outpatients and hospitalized patients during the period of our study and presenting a positive cytobacteriological examination of urine (ECBU). Were excluded from the study: patients who did not have a cytobacteriological examination of the urine (ECBU) or who performed the ECBU with a negative result.

The diagnosis of urinary tract infection was retained in view of the combination of clinical and paraclinical arguments including:

- Presence or absence of signs of urinary tract involvement (dysuria, pollakiuria, urinary burning, hematuria, suprapubic, uni or bilateral lumbar pain, prostatorrhea, fever, nausea, vomiting).

- And when the cytobacteriological examination of the urine (ECBU) shows:

1) A bacteriuria at least equal to 100,000 germs/ml.

2) Leucocyturia at least equal to 10,000/ml.

The data was collected on pre-established survey sheets, entered in Microsoft Word 2007 and Excel 2013 and analyzed using Epi Info 7.2.2.6 software.

Information collected from patient records was completely confidential and used for research purposes.

3. Results

We had identified 79 cases of urinary tract infection out of a total of 1883 admissions (outpatient and hospitalized consultants) that is a hospital prevalence of 4.19% following 145 requests for cytobacteriological examinations of urine (ECBU) that is a positivity rate of 54.48% (74/145) (see Figure 1). Among the 79 cases, 67.08% (53/79) were outpatients and 32.91% (26/79) were hospitalized (see Figure 2).

The age groups of 36 to 45 years and 46 to 55 years were more represented in 28 cases (35.44%) and 25 cases (31.64%) (see Figure 3) with an average age of 45 years ±10.

The female sex predominated in 42 cases (53.16%) with a sex ratio of 1.13 (see Figure 4).

Housewives were the largest professional group with 28 cases (35.44%) (see Table 1).

Hypertension, diabetes and gastropathy were the most common antecedents found in 38 cases (48.10%), 29 cases (36.70%) and 24 cases (30.37%) respectively

The families of bacteria responsible for urinary tract infection were dominated by Enterobacteriaceae 58 cases (73.41%) followed by Gram-positive Cocci 13 cases (16.45%) and Gram-negative Bacilli 8 cases (10.12%) (See Table 4).

The main bacteria responsible for urinary tract infections in order of frequency: Escherichia coli 36 cases (45.56%), Klebsiella pneumoniae 9 cases (11.39%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa 7 cases (8.86%), Staphylococcus aureus 6 cases (7.59%), Streptococcus sp 5 cases (6.33%) Enterobacter cloacae 3 cases (3.79%), Acinetobacter sp 3 cases (3.79%) (See Table 5).

They were resistant to amoxicillin, amoxicillin/clanulanic acid, gentamicin.

According to Raouia O. [9] antibiotics active on Staphylococci aureus were: vancomicin 100%, Trimethoprim + Sulfamethoxazole 91.7%, Rifampicin 90.9, Ciprofloxacin 90% Erythromycin 89.5%.

For Ilyass Es-Saoudy [10] antibiotics active on Staphylococci aureus were: Vancomicyne 100%, Ticarcillin/ac clavulanic 100%, Fosfomycin 91%, cotrimoxazole 90%, Cefotaxime 88%.

Kaim N. and Kouache H. [11] had reported sensitivity of Staphylococci aureus to Erythromycin 100%, Chloramphenicol, Sulfamethoxazole + Trimethoprine, Spiramycin, Fosfomycin 96.29%, Ciprofloxacin 92.59%.

Hailaji N.S.M; [12] reported a sensitivity of Staphylococci aureus for Gentamicin 92.9%, Erytromicin and Ciprofloxacin for respectively 89.3% each.

Yacine Amet Dia [13] had found a sensitivity of Vancomicine 92.14%, Gentamicine 94.86, rifampicine 90.6% on Staphylococci aureus.

5) Streptococcus Sp:

Our strains of Streptococcus sp were sensitive to colistin 100%, ceftazidime 100%, cefoxitin 100%, amoxicillin + clavulanic acid 80%.

Toutou S. [18] in 2006 reported sensitivity to amoxicillin at 74.29%.

In 2003 Sangare et al. [19] found an amoxicillin sensitivity of 86%.

5. Conclusion

Urinary tract infection is a public health problem because of the emergence of acquired resistance mechanisms within bacterial species limiting the indication of first-line antibiotics. The monitoring of these resistance mechanisms by antibiogram is necessary to develop national recommendations for the treatment of urinary tract infections in order to standardize their management.
