Brief summary
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of the most common pathologies encountered in general practice. However, with increasing bacterial resistance to antibiotics, their treatment is becoming increasingly complex. Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-E) pose a particular challenge due to their increased resistance to many commonly used antibiotics. The aim of this thesis is to study the management of such infections by general practitioners in Bas-Rhin and to suggest possible avenues for improvement.
