%X Se realiz車 un estudio descriptivo, longitudinal y retrospectivo de 64 pacientes con infecci車n urinaria, ingresados en el Hospital Infantil Sur de Santiago de Cuba desde enero hasta diciembre del 2010, con vistas a determinar algunos aspectos cl赤nicos diagn車sticos. En la mayor赤a de los ni os hospitalizados prevalecieron: anemia, leucocitosis, eritrosedimentaci車n acelerada, as赤 como leucocituria ligera; y entre los microorganismos: Escherichia coli, Proteus mirabilis y Enterobacteriaceae. Para verificar la presencia de esas alteraciones, deben indicarse los ex芍menes complementarios: hemograma completo, eritrosedimentaci車n, cituria y urocultivo, cuyos resultados posibilitan establecer un diagn車stico concluyente. A descriptive, longitudinal and retrospective study of 64 patients with urinary infection, admitted at the Southern Children Hospital in Santiago de Cuba was carried out from January to December, 2010, with the objective of determining some clinical and diagnostic aspects. In most of the hospitalized children, anemia, leucocytosis, accelerated erytrosedimentation, as well as mild leucocyturia prevailed; and among the organisms: Escherichia coli, Proteus mirabilis and Enterobacteriaceae. To verify the presence of these changes, additional tests such as complete blood count, erytrosedimentation, cyturia and urine culture should be indicated as their results facilitate to establish a conclusive diagnosis.
