Background: Urinary tract infection, defined as the presence of bacteria or yeast in the urinary tract, is the most common community-acquired infection after respiratory infections. The cytobacteriological examination of urine (CBEU) remains the primary diagnostic test for urinary tract infections and is the most frequently conducted test in microbiology laboratories. Direct examination is a crucial step of CBEU, enabling the assessment of cytology, including leukocytes and red blood cells, as well as the identification of crystals, epithelial cells, and microorganisms when present in significant quantities.

Article Synopsis
  • Williams and Trotman aimed to automate bacteriology processes since 1960, but faced challenges like high costs and traditional methods that delayed progress.
  • Automation started with blood culture incubators and eventually improved efficiency in various bacteriology areas, such as cytology and antibiotic testing, leading to faster lab results and enhanced quality.
  • The integration of artificial intelligence in bacteriological analyses signifies a further transformation, resulting in fully automated labs with less human involvement, ultimately impacting healthcare quality.

, a Gram-positive bacterium of the Micrococcaceae family, is considered an opportunistic microorganism with only a few reported cases of infection. In this report, we present a case of cholangitis caused by in a 69-year-old woman with a medical history of type 2 diabetes and a cholecystectomy performed a decade ago. She was admitted to the gastroenterology department with symptoms indicative of acute cholangitis.

Introduction: Healthcare-associated infections pose a significant public health burden, leading to morbidity, mortality, prolonged hospital stays, and substantial social and economic costs. Immunocompromised patients are at a heightened risk of nosocomial infections.

Aim: This prospective study conducted at Mohammed VI University Hospital of Oujda aimed to assess the microbial ecology of surfaces and air in an immunosuppressed patient room compared to a double hospitalization room.
