Creator:

McGregor, Jessina C., Quach, Yennie, Bearden, David T., Smith, David H., Sharp, Susan E., and Guzman-Cottrill, Judith A.

Abstract:

We compared uropathogen antibiotic susceptibility across age groups of ambulatory pediatric patients.

In E. coli, differences in trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole susceptibility varied from 79% in children under 2 to 88%...
