Deitrich Gerlt*

Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) are among the most common infections that are encountered in medicine globally. It is known that UTIs are associated with decreased quality of life in addition to a financial and economic burden. Recently, data from the global burden of disease study 2019 reported over 400 million UTIs diagnosed on a worldwide scale, resulting in over 230,000 deaths and over 520,000 DALYs. Interesting findings from this study also included an increase in mortality rate from 2.77/100,000 to 3.13/100,000 between the years 1990 to 2019.
