UTI: a new approach to its diagnosis
Abstract:
The incidence of urinary tract infection in our community is studied taking into consideration the indiscriminate and inappropriate use of antimicrobial agents and describing a simple method which could be adopted to evaluate samples of urine for the presence of antimicrobial agents. It reveals that 42.9% individuals were actually on antimicrobial agents and had sufficient levels in their urine to inhibit growth of the most common causative agent of urinary tract infection.
