Urinary tract infection refers to the presence of microbial pathogens within the urinary tract. Although urinary tract infection may be caused by any pathogen that colonizes the urinary tract, the most frequently isolated pathogens are bacterial uropathogens. Thus, this study was aimed at identifying the predominant bacterial species causing UTI, determining the prevalence of UTI and uropathogenic species, and the risk factors associated with UTI among patients visiting Haramaya Hospital, Eastern Ethiopia.

Urinary tract infection refers to the presence of microbial pathogens within the urinary tract. Although urinary tract infection may be caused by any pathogen that colonizes the urinary tract, the most frequently isolated pathogens are bacterial uropathogens. Thus, this study was aimed at identifying the predominant bacterial species causing UTI, determining the prevalence of UTI and uropathogenic species, and the risk factors associated with UTI among patients visiting Haramaya Hospital, Eastern Ethiopia. A cross-sectional study design was used to collect 213 mid-stream urine samples among urinary tract infection patients. The overall prevalence of urinary tract infection in the area was 50.5%. Most frequently isolated uropathogen in the study was Escherichia coli (79.5%), while, Staphylococcus aureus (11.1%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (6.5%), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (2.8%) were the other isolates.
