Abstract: | Objective To investigate the bacterial floral distribution and drug resistance of the urinary tract fungal infections in the elderly patients, and to guide the rational use of antifungal drugs in clinic. Methods Retrospective analysis was made for the clinical fungal strains, which were isolated from January 2016 to April 2019 in the urinary tract fungal infections in the elderly patients. Results 278 Strains were selected and most of the fungi were Candida albicans (52.2%), and the next were Candida tropicalis (23.7%), Candida glabrata (11.5%), Candida krusei (6.1%), Candida parapsilosis (3.2%) and other Candida (3.3%). The isolated fungi were more resistant to itraconazol and fluconazole. The rates of drug resistance to itraconazol were 18.6%, 15.1%, 21.9%, 35.3%, 11.1% and 0, and to fluconazole were 8.9%, 7.6%, 25.0%, 100%, 0 and 0, respectively. They were all sensitive to amphotericin B and 5-fluorocytosine. The average rates of drug resistance to voriconazole were 5.0%. Conclusion The main fungi causing urinary tract infections were Candida albicans and Calbicans tropicalis in our hospital. The detected fungi had different levels of drug resistance to itraconazol, fluconazole, and voriconazole, and therefore it is important to strengthen the surveillance of drug resistance for using antifungal medicines |
