Rising significance of antibiotic stewardship in urology and urinary tract infections – a rapid review

Abstract: Purpose of review To give an overview of the significance as well as recent developments in antibiotic stewardship (ABS) in urology and for the treatment of urinary tract infections (UTI). This rapid review is focused on recent publications during the past 18 months. Recent findings Despite the evidence to support the use of ABS interventions in the treatment of UTIs, there remains considerable inappropriate use of antibiotics, up to 68%, especially con… Show more

“…Prevention of the development of resistant strains in dialysis patients will be an upcoming challenge for antibiotic stewardship teams worldwide. Only recently have these teams found increasing interest in urologic patients, who are prone to be treated with antibiotics [ 49 ]. Antibiotic stewardship data for solid organ transplant recipients and transplant programs appears to be even scarcer [ 50 ].…”

“…Zwar erscheinen diese wesentlichen Ergebnisse nicht überraschend oder sind selbsterklärend, aber Lebentrau et al schlussfolgerten in ihrer MR2-Umfrage, dass das Wissen von Urologen über infektiöse Erkrankungen und antibiotische Verschreibungspraxis unzureichend ist [11]. Zusätzlich konnten Wattengel et al in ihrer retrospektiven Stu-die darstellen, dass 68 % der Antibiotika in der urologischen Ambulanz inadäquat eingesetzt werden [12,13]. Obwohl die Urologie eben zu den Fachdisziplinen mit dem höchsten Antibiotikaverordnungsvolumen pro Tagesdosis gehört [11,14].…”
