ASYMTOMATIC BACTERIURIA
Essentials of diagnosis Asymtomatic patient Urine culture with > 10 5 organism,or bacteria in spun urine, or dipstick positive for leukocytes and/or nitrites
General Considerations
Diagnosis criteria are not well defined Should be routinely screened and treated : pregnant women Hospitalized patients with indwelling catheters are out side the scope
Treatment
Should be guided by local rates of resistance First-line treatment: 7 days of Amoxicillin Penicillin-allergic : nitrofurantoin/ cephalosporin
General considerations
Is a term used by some to describe a young, healthy, sexually active woman who complains of recent-onset of cystitis but does not meet older, strict guidelines for diagnosis.
Clinical Findings
Patient at low risk of STD: - no testing might be appropriate - testing only after failure of empirical treatment for cystitis Patient at higher risk of STD: - Chlamydia testing by cervical swab or urin PCR, might be appropriate
Differential Diagnosis
This syndrome is clearly not well defined It is usually taken to represent an early cystitis It can be a sexually transmitted disease (STD)
Treatment
Usual cystitis agents or STD agents, depending assesment Chlamydia trachomatis was found to be high in at lest one study routine Chlamydia testing for patients who do not respond completely to a course of antibiotics would be highly recommended.
URETHRITIS
Essentials of diagnosis Pain or irritation on urination No frequency or urgency Discharge from the urethra (predominantly males) Vaginal discharge possible
General Considerations
Isolated urethritis in men or women is almost always a sexually transmitted disease, most often caused by C trachomatis. Symptoms that have gradual onset and/or persist without evolution into classic cystitis symptoms.
Clinical Findings
It can very difficult to separate a symptomatic Chlamydia infection from a bacterial cystitis with coliform organisms Testing for both may be required
General Considerations
Categorization of prostatitis: - I : Acute bacterial prostatitis - II : Chronic bacterial prostatitis - IIIA: inflammatory chronic pelvic pain syndrome - IIIB: noninflammatory chronic pelvic pain syndrome - IV :asymptomatic inflammatory prostatitis
Clinical Findings
A.
Symptoms and signs - dysuria, frequency, and urgency - low back, perineal, penile, and/or rectal pain - tense or boggy tender prostate - fever and chills
B. Laboratory findings - a urine dipstick is positive for leukocyte esterase and/or nitrites - urine culture is positive for a single uropathogen C. Imaging studies : D. Special test: prostatic massage is generally not done for acute bacterial prostatitis it may lead to acute bacteremia
Diferential diagnosis
Abnormal anatomy: urethral strictures, polyps, diverticulae, rdudancies, or valves anywhere in the system from the penis to the kidneys
Complications
Ascending infection Infection-related stones Abscess Fistula Cyst Acute urinary retension
Treatment
Prognosis
General considerations
Prevention
Early and sufficient treatment of acute bacterial prostatitis may prevent chronic prostatitis
Clinical findings
Symtoms and signs - dysuria, frequency, and urgency - prostatic tenderness on examination - low back, perineal, penile, and/or rectal pain - present for more than 3 months B. Laboratory findings - urine dipstick is positive and/or a four-glass or two-glass test for prostatic origin is positive
A.
C. Imaging studies - A transrectal prostatic ultrasound should be done if abscess or stones are suspected D. Special test 1. Four-glass test 2. Two-glass test
Complications
Ascending infection Infection-relatd stones Abscess Fistula Cyst Acute urinary retention
Treatment
Prognosis
Not known
General Considerations
Acute, uncomplicated cystitis is most common in women Approximately 33% of all women will have experienced at least one episode of cystitis by the age of 24 years 40-50% will experience at least one during their lifetime. Young womens risk factors include sexual activity, use of spermicidal condoms or diaphragm, and genetic factors such as blood type or maternal history of reccurent cystitis It is rare in men with normal urinary anatomy under the age of 35 years.
Prevention
Sexual activity (four or more episode/month) Use of spermicidal condoms Use of unlubricated condoms Use od diaphragms and/or cervical caps Recommending change in contraception Prophylactic antibiotics either low-dose daily or postcoital antibiotics
Clinical findings
A.
Symptoms and signs - dysuria, sudden onset - suprapubic pain - cloudy - Smelly urine - Frequency - urgency
Treatment
Acute cystitis - 3 day antibiotic therapy as superior to 1 day treatment - first line tx: kotrimoxazole B. Acute cystitis in the pregnant woman - Amoxicillin for 7 days C. Prophylaxis for recurrent cystitis - low dose prophylactic antibiotics: decrease recurrency by up to 95 %
A.
General considerations
Clinical findings
Treatment
PYELONEPHRITIS
Essentals of diagnosis Fever Chills Flank pain >100.000 colony-forming (CFU) on urine culture
General considerations
Infection of the kidney parenchyma Upward spread of cystitis/ hematogenous Bacterial involved are the same as uncomplicated cystitis
Clinical findings
Symptoms and signs - fever, chills, and malaise - dysuria - flank pain - nausea and vomiting B. Laboratory findings - dipstick positive - urine culture positive
A.
Imaging studies
DD
Bactericidal Broad spectrum Concentrate well in urine and renal tissues Aminoglycosides Amoxicillin Cephalosporin Fluoroquinolon (first line tx, outpatient) Imipenem 10 day to 2 week of antibiotics Nausea, vomiting, severe illness be admitted to the hospital for parenteral tx
