The aim of this study is to specify the role of rapid tests in the screening of childhood urinary tract infection. During the period between july to december 1998, 572 urinary samples were collected from pediatric out-patient in Hôpital d'Enfants de Tunis and aged from 1 month to 15 years. Only 75 samples (12.5%) were culture positive. The predictive value of leucocytes or nitrites test was 97.2%. These results allowed the use of rapid test in the screening of urinary tract infection in children. However, if clinical symptoms are present, the culture of urine must be associated to the rapid test.
本研究的目的是明确快速检测在儿童尿路感染筛查中的作用。在1998年7月至12月期间，从突尼斯儿童医院的儿科门诊收集了572份尿液样本，年龄在1个月至15岁之间。只有75份样本（12.5%）培养呈阳性。白细胞或亚硝酸盐检测的预测价值为97.2%。这些结果表明可将快速检测用于儿童尿路感染的筛查。然而，如果存在临床症状，尿液培养必须与快速检测相结合。
