We study the results of urine cultures and antibiograms of 101 child aged 0 to 10 years who were referred to laboratory of Amir Kabir hospital. The presence of more than 100.000 colonies /ml of a single organism is considered as positive culture. 25 patients were boys and 76 were girls. The most microganism that grows is Ecoli in 87 ones and then 86.1% klebsiella in 4 cases, stophylocococi in 4 cases enterobacter in 3 cases, proteus in 1 case streptococos in 1 and mixed growth in 1 case, In girls the most pathogen is Ecoli (69n.09%) then staphylococci. In boys, Ecoli is the most common pathogen, then klebsiella and enterobacter. Antibiotic resistance in Ecoli were 72% resistance to cotrimazol, 76% resistance to Ampicilin. Sensitivity to coentamy Nalidikic acid and Nitrofurantom were 90,95.96%. The study show that in treatment of out patient cause that urine culture is not available, use of Nitrofortion.
