The statistics and drug sensitivity tests of bacterial florae isolated from the urinary tract in 1983 and 1984 were reviewed. Of the 2,222 strains isolated from outpatients, 593 (26.7%) were gram positive cocci, 21.4% were @entity526 , 11.3% were Enterococcus, 10.4% were @entity795 sp., 10.0% were @entity796 , 5.6% were Alcaligenes sp., 4.2% were @entity5938 and the rest were others. Of the 507 strains isolated from hospitalized @entity1 , 107 (33.5%) were gram positive cocci, 20.3% were Enterococcus, 16.2% were @entity796 , 9.1% were @entity526 , 7.7% were Enterobacter sp. 7.5% were @entity5938 , 4.9% were @entity795 sp., S. marcescence and the rest were others. The percentage of @entity526 , K. pneumoniae and @entity5938 detected in the isolates from the outpatients and that of @entity3274 , @entity795 sp. and @entity5938 detected from the inpatients were lower than in previous reports. The percentage of @entity796 and Enterococcus detected in the isolates from both groups of @entity1 were higher than in previous reports. The major isolates (9 species) from the outpatients were more susceptible to the antimicrobial agents tested than those from the inpatients. The susceptibility of @entity801 , @entity803 and @entity802 to the major isolates was lower than in previous reports. During the past 2 years, we have been routinely using on inpatients the so-called new generation cefem antibiotics to treat @entity293 . This might be why the number of isolates of Enterococcus has increased especially in the isolates from inpatients.
