Her urine culture shows significant infection. The bacteria grown is acinetobacter. This is worst one which need potent antibiotic. Since she is aged and having liver disease , her immunity may be weak. She needs intensive treatment. Imipenam is good choice. I suggest you to consult a infection specialist. Because this infection complicate liver disease.
