Therefore, the purpose of thepresent study was to see the status of multidrug resistant UPEC strains. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study was conducted at a privateHospital in Dhaka city from July 2013 to December 2013 for a period of sixmonths. All the patients who were attended in the OPD or admitted in the IPD ofthe hospital presenting the clinical features of UTI at any age with both sexeswere included as the study population. Patients without significant pus cellwithin urine, patients under antibiotic therapy or incomplete data wereexcluded from this study. E. coli wasisolated and identified by standard methods and antibiotic sensitivity testingwas performed by disk diffusion method. Results: Atotal number of 57 UPEC were isolated of which 9 isolates were isolated frommale and 48 isolates were from female. Resistant to four groups, five groups,six groups and seven groups of drugs were found in 17.5% (95% CI 7.64 to27.36%), 14.0% (95% CI 4.99 to 23.01%), 10.5% (95% CI 2.54 to 18.46%) and 8.8%(95% CI 1.45 to 16.15%) uropathogenic E.coli respectively. The total number of MDR UPEC was 92.9% (95% CI 86.23 to99.57%). In a total multidrug resistant uropathogenic E. coli were found in 92.9% isolates. Conclusion: Inconclusion multidrug resistant uropathogenic E. coli is found in a very high rate.</p></abstract>
