Abstract: | Urinary tract infections (UTI) are one of the most common and serious infections among pediatric patients in the emergency department. Detection of UTI requires a systematic approach to urine testing and an understanding of the limitations to common screening tests. Proper culturing techniques are essential to the diagnosis. Accurate diagnosis and prompt treatment can reduce morbidity associated with UTIs. |
