Resume

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of the most common reasons for visiting urological and therapeutic departments. The aim of this study is to assess the epidemiological situation, risk factors, and the impact of UTIs on the quality of life of patients in Uzbekistan, with a focus on the city of Fergana. Materials and methods include an analysis of 500 medical records of patients suffering from UTIs aged 18 to 80 years who visited urological clinics of the city in the period from 2020 to 2023. The results showed a high incidence rate among women (65%) and a significant number of cases of recurrent infections. The use of the SF-36 quality of life scale revealed a decrease in physical functioning and general well-being in patients with chronic UTIs. Discussion of the results emphasizes the need to improve the diagnosis and treatment of UTIs, as well as raising public awareness about the prevention of urinary tract diseases. The findings of the study confirm the importance of an integrated approach to UTI management to improve the quality of life of patients.

Key words: urinary tract infections, epidemiology, quality of life, Uzbekistan, Fergana, SF-36, diagnostics, treatment.
