Urinary tract disease is a common reason for use (and likely misuse, improper use, and overuse) of antimicrobials in dogs and cats. There is a lack of comprehensive treatment guidelines such as those that are available for human medicine. Accordingly, guidelines for diagnosis and management of urinary tract infections were created by a Working Group of the International Society for Companion Animal Infectious Diseases. While objective data are currently limited, these guidelines provide information to assist in the diagnosis and management of upper and lower urinary tract infections in dogs and cats.
泌尿道疾病是犬猫使用抗菌药物（可能还存在滥用、不当使用和过度使用的情况）的常见原因。目前缺乏像人类医学那样全面的治疗指南。因此，国际伴侣动物传染病学会的一个工作组制定了泌尿道感染的诊断和管理指南。虽然目前客观数据有限，但这些指南提供了有助于诊断和管理犬猫上、下泌尿道感染的信息。
