dc.description.abstractThe Global Prevalence of Infections in Urology (GPIU) study is a worldwide-performed point prevalence study intended to create surveillance data on antibiotic resistance, type of urogenital infections, risk factors and data on antibiotic consumption, specifically in patients at urological departments with healthcare-associated urogenital infections (HAUTI). Investigators registered data through a web-based application (http://gpiu.esiu.org/). Data collection includes the practice and characteristics of the hospital and urology ward. On a certain day in November, each year, all urological patients present in the urological department at 8:00 a.m. are screened for HAUTI encompassing their full hospital course from admission to discharge. Apart from the GPIU main study, several side studies are taking place, dealing with transurethral resection of the prostate, prostate biopsy, as well as urosepsis. The GPIU study has been annually performed since 2003. Eight-hundred fifty-six urology units from 70 countries have participated so far, including 27,542 patients. A proxy for antibiotic consumption is reflected by the application rates used for antibiotic prophylaxis for urological interventions. Resistance rates of most uropathogens against antibiotics were high, especially with a note of multidrug resistance. The severity of HAUTI is also increasing, 25% being urosepsis in recent years.en_US

dc.description.sponsorshipThis study was organized by the board of the ESIU, endorsed and sponsored by the EAU and performed in collaboration with the Asian Association of UTI and STD, the International Society of Chemotherapy for Infection and Cancer and the Interregional Association of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, as well as numerous regional urological and infectious diseases societies. The GPIU study group is most grateful to the altruistic contributions of the GPIU investigators.en_US
