Kan man stole på urinmikroskopi og dyrkning, der er udført i almen praksis?

摘要: Introduction Urinary tract infections (UTI) account for 2-5% of consultations in general practice, but only about half the patients with dysuria have significant bacteriuria (> 100,000 bacteria per ml). A microbiological diagnosis can be made by examination a urine sample, and Danish family practice UTI is often reached microscopic analysis or dip-slide culture test. These methods high validity when performed hospital, we need knowledge examinations practice. The aim this study was to validate detection microscopy Material Urine specimens artificially produced adding known quantity (Escherichia coli, Proteus mirabilis, Enterobacter cloacae, Staphylococcus epidermidis Enterococcus faecalis) sterile were sent 25 practices culture. No prior instruction testing procedure given. As gold standard, results standardised method skilled laboratory technicians at Department Microbiology, University Southern Denmark, used. Results Significant identified sensitivity 95% specificity 83%. corresponding figures 96%. morphology interpreted correctly 80% examinations, 60% strains classified terms their motility. Discussion are relied on.
