Three patients (1%) had sepsis. 21 (7.3%) patients had positive urine culture. Of them there were 20 positive cultures of E. coli and one Klebsiella spp. respectively. All of the bacteria cultured in twenty-one patients resistant to ciprofloxacin, while 90% to amikacin, 10% to amoxicillin-clavulanate, 35% to cefuroxime sodium and 40% were susceptible to ceftriaxone.
