Characteristics and antibiotic resistance patterns of urinary tract isolates in hospitalized and non-hospitalized patients: a cross-sectional study in Khartoum, Sudan

Abstract

This study highlights the pattern of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in UTIs and their significance. Continuous monitoring, development of local antibiograms, and implementation of surveillance programs are essential for guiding empirical antibiotic use and managing UTIs effectively, especially in resource-limited settings like Sudan.
