Background: Urinary tract infection is the most common infectious diseases and increasing resistance to antimicrobial agents in bacteria is a major problem around the world in treatment of urinary infections. This study was conducted to identify causative agents of urinary tract infection and to determine their susceptibility to antibiotics in hospitalized and out patients referred to the Vase’ee Hospital in Sabzevar.Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was performed on 256 individuals hospitalized and out patients older than eighteen age in the Sabzevar Vase’ee hospital. Identification of bacteria was performed using biochemical tests and their susceptibility was determined by disk diffusion method. The data were analyzed using t-test, Chi-square and Fisher’s exact test with percentage error 5%.Results: Of 256 patients, 59.7 % and 40.3% were female and male, respectively. The most frequently isolated pathogen were Escherichia coli (50.8%), Klebsiella (17.6%), Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci (15/62%), Enterobacter (7.8%). E. coli as most common pathogen of urinary tract infections showed the most resistance to ampicillin and the least resistance to Imipenem indicated. In total, regardless of the type of bacteria, the highest resistance was against amoxicillin and the lowest resistance was against Imipenem.Conclusion: Considering the frequency of urinary tract infections and in order to prevent serious complication, a survey of regional resistance pattern and timely treatment can control development of resistant bacteria.

Background and objective: Resistance of microorganisms to antibiotics is one of the most serious problems in the field of infectious medicine that leads to in costs, adverse drug reactions and the development of resistant bacterial infections. Therefore, the present study is to investigate antibiotic before surgery in Gerash Amiralmomenin hospital in 1393. Material and methods: A random sample included 2282 patients from different departments of surgery (general and gastrointestinal, urological, orthopedic, ear, nose and throat, Neurosurgery, Ophthalmology, Obstetrics and Gynecology) were recruited from hospital then Using the information contained in their records and illegible medical and surgical data were asking each service professionals Result: In this study, 2177 patients had received antibiotics in the selection of antibiotics (69/88%) were correct. The most commonly used antibiotics were cefazolin in patients. Conclusion: This study showed that antibiotic prophylaxis consistent with national guidelines It is located on the upper level. The guideline recommends that for most surgery is only one type of antibiotics prescribed several medications, while at this center, the number was too Guidelines This in turn could increase drug interactions, reducing efficiency and increasing costs in the long term due to the resistance.
