[Experiences with the uripret-system in pediatric practice (author's transl)].
The present study reports on the application of the Uripret-System for identification and susceptibility testing of microbial agents causing urinary tract infections carried out in a pediatric outpatient clinic. The findings were compared with those determined with the conventional methods in an institute of medical microbiology. For the detected mono- and mixed-cultures, in 85% of the cases a concurrent result of both methods was found. Only in one case a different microbial agent genus was determined with Uripret from that found in the institute. The quota of concurrence of the antibiograms for the mono-cultures was highest at 100% for gentamicin and lowest at 85.07% for tetracycline. With the mixed-cultures the concurrence ranged between 81.25% for tetracycline and 96.88% for sulphamethoxazole-trimethoprim. With proteus in mono- and mixed-culture the antibiograms showed concurrence to a lesser degree compared to the other microbial agent geni. The application of the Uripret-System in pediatric practice can be recommended on the basis of the present results.
