Purpose: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a relatively common disease, and clinically it appears diversely like urethritis, cystitis, prostatitis, and acute pyelonephritis. E. coli which is the major causative microorganism of UTI, and accounts for 50% of hospital pathogens cultured in 40% of catheter-related UTI. We evaluated the preventive effect on UTI and inhibitory effect on complications of Uro-vaxomⓡ, and investigate the effect of Uro-vaxomⓡ in catheter induced UTI.
Materials and Methods: A comprehensive electronic search was conducted using the Medline database to identify all publications relating to Uro-vaxomⓡ and catheter and UTI by using keywords Uro-vaxomⓡ, catheter, catheterization, urinary tract infection, cystitis, bacteriuria, antimicrobial agents, intensive care unit.
Results: 227 literatures which were consistent with our purposes were searched; we intensively analyzed 26 literatures which were appropriate for our literature. All literature reported antimicrobial effects of Uro-vaxomⓡ.
Conclusions: We identified that Uro-vaxomⓡ had a preventive effect on UTI associated with E. coli to patients who had catheterization.
