Antimicrobial Resistance in Gram-negative bacteria from Urinary Specimens (ARGUS)
ARGUS aimed to determine the impact of antibiotic treatment on clinical and bacteriological outcomes in patients in Harare, Zimbabwe. Participants were adult patients presenting with symptoms of urinary tract infection at 10 primary health clinics in Harare between July 2019 and July 2020. More than 160 participants completed a questionnaire and provided a urine sample at baseline and were followed up at 7-14 days and 28 days.
