Description
UTIs are contagious infection, affecting both the male and female population
and can infect various parts of the urinary tract system (UTS), such as urethra,
ureter, urinary bladder and kidneys mainly focused on the lower UTS like urethra
and ureter. Escherichia coli and Klebsiella sp are the main causative agents,
although other Gram-positive bacteria and even fungi have also been isolated in
numerous infected population (Flores-Mireles et al., 2015).Some of the main
predisposing factors include age, gender, UTI history, diabetes and sexual activity.
Patients with diabetes and older population groups are more prone to UTIs and are
more common in this type of population than in the younger age population group
(Goddard et al., 2018).UTIs are divided into two types, namely complicated and
uncomplicated UTIs. In uncomplicated cases of UTIs, UTS function is mostly
healthy. In complicated UTIs, UTS function is not healthy or systematically accurate.
Some group of people are at higher danger of contracting UTIs than the
others. Both women and girls are at higher risk of contracting UTIs as their urethras
are shorter as well as closer to the rectum that makes it easier for pathogenic bacteria
to invade the UTS.
