    PATHOGENS

    • Uncomplicated UTI: >95% of these infections are due to single organism.
    • Culprit pathogens:
      • E. coli (75-95%)
        • Uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) most likely to cause UTIs are groups B2 and D that have "fitness elements" providing them with advantage in extraintestinal niche.
      • Other Enterobacteriaceae (e.g., K. pneumoniae, P. mirabilis)
      • S. saprophyticus 
      • Uncommon pathogens: P. aeruginosa, Group D Streptococci
      • Rare pathogens: H. influenzae, M. tuberculosis, anaerobes, Salmonella, Shigella, adenovirus type 11, Ureaplasma, Mycoplasma, Enterococcus spp., Group B Streptococci
        • Enterococcus spp. and group B Streptococcus alone rarely cause uncomplicated cystitis (see excellent Hooton NEJM 2013 reference[3]).
          • These two organisms are recovered from midstream urine specimens of ~10% of women with cystitis, but are rarely (1%) also isolated from paired catheter urine specimens.
