Analysis of Community-Acquired Urinary Tract Infection Treatment in Pediatric Patients Requiring Hospitalization: Opportunity for Use of Narrower Spectrum Antibiotics

Abstract: Background: The most narrow-spectrum antibiotic possible should be used for empiric and definitive treatment of pediatric urinary tract infections (UTIs). Objectives: The objectives of this study were to determine an appropriate narrow-spectrum antibiotic for empiric UTI treatment, factors differentiating empiric first-generation cephalosporin (FGC) versus third-generation cephalosporin (TGC) coverage, and factors associated with unnecessarily broad-spectrum definitive antibiotic treatment. Methods: This was a… Show more

“…Among the 54 included studies, 3,12–69 42 (78%) described infections and 12 (22%) described colonization with at least one of the pathogens of interest ( Table 1 ). 13,18,26,33,37,43,45,47,50,51,53–55,57 Most studies were from the USA (n=42), 3,14–17,20,21,21,23–28,30–33,37,38,40–42,44–51,53–63,67–69 although studies from Israel (n=5), 13,29,34,36,39,52 New Zealand (n=4), 12,43,64–66 Australia (n=2), 19,35 and Brazil (n=1) 18 were also identified ( Figure 1 ). Studies of infection most often included patients with skin and soft tissue infection (SSTI) caused by S. aureus or urinary tract infection (UTI) caused by E. coli or other Enterobacterales, while other infections like community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) were described more rarely.…”

“…Guideline development followed by PAF for targeted antibiotics was the cornerstone strategy of initiatives for our ASP. We previously reported on guideline creation for linezolid use and urinary tract infection treatment [ 14 , 15 ]. Table 1 provides a complete list of ASP initiatives and guideline revisions since program initiation.…”

“…Até 8% das crianças terão pelo menos uma ocorrência de ITU entre as idades de 1 mês e 11 anos, e até 30% dos bebes e crianças, durante os primeiros seis a doze meses, apresentam infecções recorrentes de ITU . Aproximadamente 5 das crianças que dão entrada no pronto-socorro com suspeita de ITU requerem internação hospitalar (STULTZ et al, 2021).…”
