Urinary tract infection is a very common but underestimated problem. In India there are more than 10 million reported cases of UTI per year. These figures reflect the enormity of it and most of us would get to see their fair share in the outpatients department. The varied spectrum that UTI presents itself is mind boggling cutting across age groups, sex, associated comorbidities, immune-suppression/compromised status, endemic areas and many more. The aging population in India is increasing due to better medical facilities and early diagnosis of disease. This also increases the age related UTIs in men due to BPH and females too due to hormone related changes. These people are to be treated well as they are underprivileged physically and monetarily. Another issue that we all face is the increasing trends of nosocomial infections which constitute about 40% of the total infections. With the constantly changing spectrum of organisms and the varied antibiograms, we as clinicians are perpetually flummoxed in selecting appropriate treatment protocols. Add to it the ever increasing use of higher antibiotics at the primary care level leading to early antibiotic resistance and leaving us with very little scope for subsequent treatment. Another vexing problem is lack of application of the current existing guidelines which confuses the issue even further.
We all know that episodes of UTI can be effectively managed and treated with antibiotics. This book helps attract the attention towards the present scenario in UTI in various fields. This starts right from microbiology labs to the ICU setting.
The current Update on Urinary Tract Infections is about solving clinical problems that we face daily in treating urinary tract infections. Authors here have reviewed the current literature and tried to update the subject of UTI under various important categories. This actually is an evidence-based book on UTI which has been continuously updated over the last 10 years.fm12
In this book, authors have concisely compiled the current research and updates on the subject, presenting it as a ready- reference which can be easily used by all clinicians for updating their knowledge for the future. Such knowledge gives the readers information helping them to reconsider and optimise their own ways of treating the problem.

fm13Preface
Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common problems faced by all physicians in the community or the hospital. Over the past many years there has been a shift in the understanding of UTI. The field continues to be fertile subject for both basic science and clinicians. The way of looking at UTI has changed over time but many old ways still remain.
I have asked the authors to identify the most relevant clinical questions in their subspeciality, perform schematic literature search and apprise the reader about the same.
Interestingly, our paradigms continue to change. I hope this book represents the most comprehensive discussions of UTI. The techniques and technologies illustrated do represent the most popular, well utilised and enduring management options of today.
I hope the readers find this issue provocative, informative and very applicable in managing their patients of UTI.
fm15Acknowledgments
All my teachers who have taught me new things to keep me abreast of the situation in medical science. My family (Saloni, Shagun, Suhani & OSCAR), parents and my friend (Dr Prasun Ghosh) were all very instrumental in their help.
My special thanks to my daughter Shagun Khera who drew the bacterial image on the cover of this book.
Every journey begins with a step and this editorship is a first one for me. I hope it brings more good work for me.
