It was conducted a study of no-experimental descriptive in order to detect the causative organisms of urinary tract infections and antimicrobial susceptibility in older adults residing in a health center of Carabobo state. They were evaluated 57 urine samples for bacteriological culture and the recovered microorganisms underwent susceptibility testing by disk diffusion method in agar (Kirby-Bauer). The most frequently isolated microorganisms in the ITU were Escherichia coli (53.84% and Klebsiella pneumoniae (15.40%), among others. In the antimicrobial susceptibility testing, the antibiotics that showed better antimicrobial activity were nitrofurantoin and amikacin (84.62%) each one, followed by gentamicin (76.92%) for all the Gramnegative bacilli recovered. The greater resistance was observed in ampicillin (61.54%), followed by trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (53.85%) and ciprofloxacin (46.15%), in enteric Gram-negative bacilli. In the present study was found a greater presence of Escherichia coli in the UTI as well as better antimicrobial activity of nitrofurantoin, amikacin and gentamicin against all the bacteria recovered.

Se realizó un estudio de tipo descriptivo, no experimental con el objetivo de detectar los microorganismos causales de infecciones urinarias y susceptibilidad antimicrobiana en adultos mayores que residen en un centro de salud del Estado Carabobo.
