Zusammenfassung
Infektionen der Harnwege (HWI) sind die häufigsten renalen und urologischen Erkrankungen. Gleichzeitig stellen sie die verbreitetste bakterielle Infektion aller Organsysteme dar. Da die entsprechenden Statistiken aus Deutschland und Europa fehlen, sind hier einige Zahlen aus den USA aufgeführt: Man geht in den USA von ca. 8 Mio. Patientenbesuchen pro Jahr wegen HWI und von 1,5 Mio. stationären HWI-Erkrankungen pro Jahr aus.Die Zahl der Krankenhausaufnahmen wegen vermutlicher akuter Pyelonephritis liegt in den USA bei schätzungsweise 100 000 pro Jahr. Infekte der Harnwege gelten als die verbreitetste Ursache für Bakteriämien (Gransden et al. 1990; Kreger et al. 1980).
