Adamcová V, Bartáková L, Čermák P, Zachoval R, Hrbáček J. Multiresistant gram negative bacteria in urology. Gram-negative bacteria are the most common pathogens causing urinary tract infections. The incidence of bacterial resistance is increasing worldwide. Prevention and treatment of infections caused by resistant bacteria are becoming a vast medical, social and financial problem. The biggest problems are health care-associated infections and infections related to invasive lines. Knowledge of resistance mechanisms and local epidemiological situation help with effective initiation of empirical antibiotic therapy.
