Abstract:Urinary tract infection(UTI)in children is a common cause of fever and bacteremia in infants and young children,with a tendency to recur.Incomplete treatment may lead to serious consequences.Urine test results are crucial for clinical diagnosis.Urine culture is the gold standard for diagnosing UTI.Standardized methods for collecting urine samples are needed to reduce the possibility of contamination.With the widespread use of antibacterial drugs,the problem of drug resistance has become increasingly prominent,bringing challenges to the treatment of UTI in children.Prevention and control strategies include rational use of antibacterial drugs,strengthening etiological monitoring and drug susceptibility testing,promoting new antibacterial drugs and combination drug regimens,and strengthening public education.
