Abstract

27

A retrospective analysis was performed using The Surveillance Network®, USA, to examine

28

the prevalence of antibiotic resistance among urine isolates from female U.S. outpatients in

29

2012, and assessed trends in antibiotic resistance comparing 2003 to 2012. The most common

30

pathogen identified in 2012 (N=285,325) was Escherichia coli (64.9% of isolates). In 2012,

31

E. coli resistance to nitrofurantoin was low (
