Don't Screen for UTIs in Most Patients Without Symptoms

July 2019

You'll see more focus on avoiding antibiotics for asymptomatic bacteriuria...due to updated guidelines from the Infect Dis Soc of Am.

We know this is a common finding...especially in patients with a catheter, with a spinal cord injury, or who reside in a long-term care facility.
