초록	Objectives: To be able to classify and characterize risk factors of patients with complicated UTI and its associated bacterial pathogens in patients admitted at SJDH January 2021- January 2022 Methods: This retrospective study included patients diagnosed with complicated UTI admitted from 2021 – 2022 at San Juan de Dios Hospital. The diagnosis of complicated UTI was confirmed in any individual who had significant urinalysis findings and associated risk factors that define cUTI. Patients were categorized based on the risk factors and the isolated pathogen was also categorized. Categorical variables were presented in percentages and analyzed using Fisher’s exact test. Results: A sample of 68 patient records were collected for this study and their information were analyzed according to the objectives of this study. This chapter is divided into four (4) sections which will answer the following objectives. For those with isolated pathogens, E. coli remains to be the most common isolated pathogen. For the following risk factors, all had no significant associated with bacterial pathogen at 5% level of significance: structural abnormalities (p=0.28) functional abnormalities (p=1), conditions that interfere with host defense mechanisms (p=0.925), iatrogenic conditions (p=0.21) and others such as males (p=0.63). Conclusions: Several risk factors comprise the diagnosis of complicated UTI. In the advent of evolving pathogens, it is imperative in the diagnosis to be able to identify the specific etiology of the infection to guide the clinician in the management of these patients. This will also help clinicians to be able to categorize specific risk factors and individualize the treatment to these patients
