RESUMEN
En la presente investigación se determinó la sensibilidad a nitrofurantoína (NTF) mediante un análisis observacional retrospectivo de informes de antibiogramas, por disco de difusión, de urocultivos provenientes de gerontes hospitalizados. En la serie observada (N=90) el desarrollo más frecuente fue E. Coli que presentó una sensibilidad a NTF de 100%. Al considerar la sensibilidad total (es decir de todos las bacterias uropatógenas Gram negativas, (BGN) la resistencia para NTF fue de 26%. Se debate además sus limitaciones médicas y algunos de los potenciales usos de NTF en pacientes hospitalizados
ABSTRACT
In the present investigation, sensitivity to nitrofurantoin (NTF) was determined through a retrospective observations analysis of reports of antibiograms, by diffusion disc, of urocultures from hospitalized gerontes. In the series observed (N=90), the most frequent development was E. coli, which showed a sensitivity to NTF of 100%. When considering the total sensitivity (ie of all Gram-negative uropathogenic bacteria, BGN) the resistance for NTF was 26%. It also discusses its medical limitations and some of the potential uses of NTF in hospitalized patients
