Comparison of antibiotic susceptibility of Escherichia coli between community-acquired and post-prostate biopsy acute bacterial prostatitis.

CONCLUSIONS: E. coli in Bx-ABP showed a higher incidence of antibiotic resistance and bacteremia than those in CA-ABP. Carbapenem may be a treatment of choice for patients suspected of having sepsis. Considering the recent emergence of carbapenem-resistant bacteria, piperacillin/tazobactam or amikacin may be considered. PMID: 31797804 [PubMed - in process]
