    The aim of the study was to determine the most frequent uropathogens, their antimicrobial susceptibility and trends of susceptibility in the period from January 2000 to December 2005. The analysed ... group included patients from the Pediatric Nephrology Department of the Ljubljana Medical Centre. Antimicrobialsusceptibility was determined using the disk-diffusion method. The susceptibility data of the most frequently isolated bacteria, namely Escherichia coli, Proteus mirabilis, Klebsiella species, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and enterococci, were analysed retrospectively with the MBio informational program. The most frequent isolate found in the study was the bacteria E. coli (52.2%). The combined susceptibility of E. coli, P. mirabilis, and Klebsiella spp. strains was 42.5% for ampicillin, 70.2% for co-amoxiclav, 89.9% for cefaclor, 94.2% for cefuroxime 97.2% for gentamicin, 72.8% for co-trimoxazole, and 88.8% for nitrofurantoin. There was a small increase in susceptibility to the majority of the tested antibiotics in the years 2004 and 2005. Enterococcal susceptibility to ampicillin was 98.2%, to gentamicin 92.9% and to nitrofurantoin 96.4%. The susceptibility of P. aeruginosa to most of the tested antibiotics was 89% or higher. The low rate of susceptibility of the most frequent uropathogens to the majority of the tested antibiotics is the reason to change empirical treatment guidelines and institute measures for containment of antibiotic resistance.
