| Abstract | In two groups of 25 urological patients each, with and free of urinary infection, Urostim is administered fifteen days before and after the operation. The prophylactic effect of the drug in terms of hospital transmitted wound and urinary infections is recorded on the basis of comparative study with control groups. As shown by the results obtained, Urostim immunoprophylaxis yields positive results in urological practice. In 80 per cent of the cases development of the complication is prevented. Vaccine administration in conjunction with an updated antibiotic broadens the therapeutic scope in patients with urinary infection. |
