The effectiveness of a screening device for urinary tract infection (Microstix**) was compared to routine laboratory cultures, sensitivities, and colony counts. The Microstix were highly effective in determining the presence or absence of urinary tract infections. In addition, they could be subcultured to provide meaningful bacterial sensitivities. Microstix are economical, easy to use, and accurate. Their use in the diagnosis and follow-up of urinary tract infections is therefore recommended.
一种用于尿路感染的筛查设备(Microstix**)的有效性与常规实验室培养、药敏试验及菌落计数进行了比较。Microstix在确定是否存在尿路感染方面非常有效。此外,它们可以进行传代培养以提供有意义的细菌药敏结果。Microstix经济、易用且准确。因此,建议将其用于尿路感染的诊断和随访。
