Urinary Tract Infection, Lower (Cystitis), Uncomplicated
Philip Buttaravoli MD, FACEP, in Minor Emergencies (Second Edition), 2007
What Not To Do: Do not forget to check for pregnancy. Do not undertake expensive urine cultures for every lower UTI of recent onset in nonpregnant, normal, healthy women with no history of recent UTI or antibiotic use. Do not use the single-dose or 3-day regimens for a possible upper UTI or pyelonephritis (see Chapter 86 ). Do not rely on gross inspection of the urine sample. Cloudiness is usually caused by crystals, and odors can result from diet or medication. Do not request a follow-up visit or culture after therapy unless symptoms persist or recur. Discussion
Lower UTI or cystitis is a superficial bacterial infection of the bladder or urethra.
