An evaluation of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria in patients with urinary stone disease: data from a high-volume stone management center
ConclusionsMDR bacteria were common among patients with urinary stones in our center and achieved high drug-resistant rates in ampicillin, first-generation and part of third-generation cephalosporins, and fluoroquinolones. Indwelling catheters and antibiotics used in the last 3 months were independent risk factors for MDR formation. Tailored antibacterial strategies still should be established according to the local bacterial spectrum and patient condition.
