Abstract

A prospective, descriptive, and multicenter research that included 1104 women with three or more uncomplicated UTIs following immunoprophylaxis with Uromune® vaccine between 2011 and 2022 is presented. to analyze the efficacy of Uromune® and perform a follow-up protocol. age; bacteria; number of UTIs at baseline and at 3, 6, and 12 months of follow-up; distribution according to age and months of the year; therapy with polybacterial vaccine or autovaccine. Efficacy was defined as 0-2 UTIs during follow-up. Patients were divided into Group 1, with 3-4 UTIs at baseline, and Group 2, with 5 or more. Average age was 72. Escherichia coli represented 64.3% of infections. Overall efficacy was 91.7%, 82.3%, and 57.6% at 3, 6, and 12 months. Efficacy in patients treated with vaccines was 95.8%, 88.4%, and 56.1%, and with autovaccines it was 85.7%, 73.6%, and 60.2%. Results were statistically significant in relation to vaccines (p < 0.05). Group 1 represented 65.2% and Group 2 represented 34.8%. Group 1 had an efficacy of 97.7%, 91.1%, and 64.7% and Group 2 had an efficacy of 80.2%, 64.3%, and 40%. Results were statistically significant in Group 1 (p < 0.05). Patients at baseline with less than five UTIs will have better result and would benefit from a prophylaxis protocol with Uromune®.
