Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) is most necessary reason for mortality and morbidity to all age teams with around one hundred fifty million cases occurring globally each year. Aim of this study was to identify the urinary tract infection in pediatricts patients. A retrospective study was conducted in Crimson hospital, Manigram, Butwal. Total 183 samples were collected by employing a sterile urinary container, below 12 years age excluding the patients already on antibiotic medical aid. All specimens were inoculated on routine culture media and isolation was done by standard bacteriology procedures. All isolates were differentiating by performing staining techniques, biochemical test and antibiotic susceptibility test.

Ninety three sample in mac-conkey’s agar shows disaccharide ferment, motile, gram negative bacilli, inodle positive, methylred positive, voges proukaer and turn negative having some strains of beta-haemolysis on nutrient agar. The percentage of E.coli isolated in female was 95%, positive sample were the age of below twelve years and remaining five it had been male.

In this study, female’s youngsters were largely affected because the most typically isolated organism by E.coli followed by Enterobacteria oxytoca. E.coli was most sensitive to amikacin, gentamycin and resistant preponderantly to norfloxacin. The uropathogens to common antimicrobial agents should be taken into consideration once choosing treatment plans for UTI.
