Core Tip It is necessary to evaluate the clinical response of patients with urinary tract infections (UTIs) after 72 h of antibiotic therapy as poor clinical response has been related to clinical failure. We performed a single center retrospective study including 511 hospitalized patients (aged ≥ 18 years) who were diagnosed with community-onset Escherichia coli (E. coli) UTI. Among them, 66.1% of the patients had an early clinical response. Patients with an early clinical response had a shorter length of stay (4.3 d) and an earlier defervescence (64 h) than those without an early clinical response. An appropriate initial antibiotic therapy, extended-spectrum β-lactamase-producing E. coli, and a stay in a healthcare facility before admission were factors associated with an early clinical response. However, the initial broad-spectrum antibiotic therapy or initial severe presentations did not impact early clinical response.
