Abstract

Background: Urinary tract infection is known as one of the most common bacterial infections in CHILDREN. Early diagnosis and treatment along with recognition of risk factors and long-term follow – up of the patients are the most important factors in preventing SCAR FORMATION in KIDNEYs. This study was carried out to estimate the relation of the time from onset of symptoms to the start of treatment to SCAR FORMATION in KIDNEYs. Methods: This study was done by historical cohort method on 120 patients divided into 2 groups of 60. The treatment was started on time for the first group, for the second with delay. All of the patients suffered from urinary tract infection and were DMSA SCANned after six months. The frequency of SCAR FORMATION in KIDNEYs in the two groups was compared and the results were analyzed by SPSS software.Finding: 75% of the girls and 25% of the boys suffered from urinary tract infection. No obvious relation between the SCAR FORMATION and appearance, parents’ social level and CHILDREN’s gender was found. A meaningful relation was found between treatment delay and SCAR FORMATION in KIDNEY due to urinary tract infection (RR=3, CI=14-6.5). The minimum and maximum delay time between onset of symptoms and start of treatment has been 4.8 days. Based on this research, a delay of more than 6 days in treatment may cause KIDNEY SCAR FORMATION twice as much (RR=2.15, CI=1.1-4.6).Conclusion: SCAR FORMATION risk increases with delay in antimicrobial therapy in urinary tract infection. It is strongly recommended to begin the proper treatment as soon as possible to prevent KIDNEY damage.
