Abstract

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common pathology in childhood, its clinical manifestations are usually non-specific in neonates, however, it can be the first clinical sign of a urinary tract malformation or renal complications. Its prevalence may vary according to age and sex, with older children presenting a more specific symptomatology, usually fever and painful urination. Predisposing factors (PF) for contracting UTI in pediatric patients (PEP) are mainly: ureteral vesic reflux, renal diseases, voiding dysfunction, previous urinary tract infection, presence of catheters, constipation and poor hygiene habits. The main bacterial agents that cause a urinary tract infection are Escherichia coli followed by Klebsiela spp and Proteus spp., the definitive laboratory test to diagnose the pathology is urine culture.
