Popis: Urinary tract infections (UTIs) remain an urgent issue in clinical pediatrics. Empirical selection of antibacterial therapy becomes more complicated, and antibacterial drug indication is not always clinically substantiated. This study aimed to compare the antibacterial susceptibility pattern of the main group of urinary tract infectious agents from 2009–2016 with intermediate results from 2020–2021, during the COVID-19 pandemic, among children in the Chernivtsi region. Urine samples were collected from 3089 children (0–17 years old) treated at the health care institutions in the Chernivtsi region (2009–2016). The clinical-laboratory examination of 177 children (0–17 years old) was carried out from 2020 to 2021. The children received specialized medical care at the Department of Nephrology. Preliminary data of regional monitoring (2020–2021) are not considerably different from the previous regional susceptibility of antibiotics: to penicillin (p2=4,338; p2=7,277; p2=5,309; p2=5,594; p2=4,338; p2=7,277; p2=5,309; p2=5,594; p
