Influence of Sepsis on the Middle-Term Outcomes for Urinary Tract Infections in Elderly People.

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common condition that predominantly affects elderly people, who are particularly susceptible to developing sepsis. Previous studies have indicated a detrimental effect of sepsis on short-term outcomes in elderly patients with UTI, but there is a lack of data about the middle-term prognosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of sepsis on the middle-term prognosis of patients aged 65 years or older with complicated community-acquired UTIs.
