Nosocomial Urinary Tract Infections in Baghdad Teaching Hospital
...Show More Authors

Objectives: The objectives of the present study are to identify both, the rate of urinary tract infections (UTI) in medical
and surgical wards in Baghdad Teaching Hospital and the common types of microorganisms that cause this type of NIs,
study the resistance of isolated microorganisms to several types of antibiotic and the effect of some disinfection
material like Iodine, chlorhexidine and septicin on the growth of these isolates.
Methodology: This is descripƟve study carried out from 1\6\2009 to 1\11\2009. A total of 200 paƟents were admiƩed
to medical and surgical wards in Baghdad teaching hospital, paƟents were divided into two group 100 paƟents, in
surgical ward and 100 paƟents in medical ward. Some of important information was recorded. Urine samples were
cultured on different culture media in order to isolate different pathogenic bacteria. Then, the sensitivity of these
isolates were tested against different antimicrobials, antibiotics (amikacin, ampicillin, cefixime, cefotaxime,
cephalexin, gentamycin, nalidixic acid, nitrofuranion, rifimpicin and vancomycin) and the effects of different
disinfectant solutions with different concentrations; including benzalkonium chloride (septicin, commercial),
chlorhexidine and povidoniodine (betadine, commercial), were tested as well on the growth of isolated bacteria.
Results: The results show that a high incidence of (UTI) as nosocomial infections appeared in medical and surgical
wards in Baghdad Teaching Hospital and most of paƟents were male at age groups ranged from 46-55 years and 36-45
years in medical and surgical ward respectively. The highest rate of UTIs increased in patients who had needed
catheterization procedures in both wards. Gram negative bacteria were commonly p. aeuroginosa and E. coli, less
commonly gram positive bacteria like methicillin-resistant Satph aureus were isolated as etiologic agents of UTIs
infections in both wards. Moreover, multi-drug resistance for common use antibiotics was observed in most virulent
species like Pseudomonas aeuroginos and Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Nitrofurantion was the
best drug for all bacterial isolates. It was obvious that 10-15% of povidione-iodine solution has more effect on the
growth controlling of pathogenic bacteria, especially Pseudomonas aeuroginos isolates. The results indicated
significant differences (p˂0.01) between the effect of SepƟcin and Chlorhexidine on the acƟvity of isolated bacteria.
Recommendations: The study recommends that the catheter should be changed every 2 days, especially if signs of
urinary tract infections appear and using antimicrobial catheters and intelligent use of aseptic techniques, and limiting
the use of antibiotics and the use of most effective disinfectant in the exact concentration specified by the
manufacture, and the detection antibiotic resistance gene using Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) technique.

The Impact of Unregulated Urban Sprawl on Public Services and Quality of Life in Baghdad: A Case Study of Al-Dora District Using Spatial Analysis
...Show More Authors

The rapid and uncontrolled expansion of urban sprawl in Baghdad, particularly after 2003, has significantly transformed the city's landscape. This expansion stems from socio-political instability, a lack of affordable housing, and inadequate urban planning frameworks. As informal settlements encroach on agricultural lands, the city's infrastructure—including water, sanitation, and transportation systems—faces mounting pressure. This situation presents critical challenges to the sustainability of Baghdad’s public services and the quality of life for its residents. This study aims to evaluate the impact of unregulated urban sprawl on Baghdad’s public services and infrastructure, focusing on how informal growth has undermined the city'

The problems of teaching the subject of reciting the Holy Quran and memorizing it through the teachers of the subject and the female students' perspectives and finding the required solutions
...Show More Authors

The problem of the current paper is embodied in the weakness of the female students
of the department of the Quran sciences in the college of Education for Women in the
University of Baghdad in the subject of reciting and memorizing the Holy Quran. This is what
the professors and the scientific and educational supervisors stress equally through their visits
to the students applicants during the period of their practical application of teaching in the
schools; especially that the subject is thought for four years during their study in the college.
That weakness is so explicit with a quite large number of the students-applicants, who are
supposed to be the future teachers in the subject of the Holy Quran and Islamic Ed

Assessing road networks properties based on GIS techniques: Al-Karrada Region/Baghdad as a case study
...Show More Authors

Transportability refers to the ease with which people, goods, or services may be transferred. When transportability is high, distance becomes less of a limitation for activities. Transportation networks are frequently represented by a set of locations and a set of links that indicate the connections between those places which is usually called network topology. Hence, each transmission network has a unique topology that distinguishes its structure. The most essential components of such a framework are the network architecture and the connection level. This research aims to demonstrate the efficiency of the road network in the Al-Karrada area which is located in the Baghdad city. The analysis based on a quantitative evaluation using graph th
