Popis: Objectives To compare the clinical and bacteriological outcomes of pivmecillinam treatment for community-acquired urinary tract infections (UTIs) caused by ESBL-producing Escherichia coli versus non-ESBL-producing E. coli in an outpatient setting. Methods A prospective, multicentre, observational cohort study of women aged ≥16 years, with pivmecillinam-treated community-acquired UTIs caused by E. coli with or without ESBL production, recruited from primary care, was conducted in the period from April 2013 to August 2016. Eighty-eight women (mean age 49.4 years) with community-acquired UTIs caused by ESBL-producing E. coli were compared with a control group of 74 women (mean age 50.1 years). Trial registration Regional Committees for Medical and Health Research Ethics (REC) in Norway, ID 2011/2214, and ClinicalTrials.gov, ID NCT01531023. Results The median time until symptom resolution after treatment initiation was 5 days for the ESBL cases and 3 days for the non-ESBL controls (P
