, Timothy Bukowski, MD, Richard Sutherland, MD, Lisa Gravens-Mueller, MS, Myra Carpenter, PhDAbstract |
Post-hoc analysis of the Randomized Intervention for Children with Vesicoureteral Reflux study suggests that, in concordance with European guidelines, using bacteriologic criterion of ≥10 000 colony forming units/mL of a single organism does not decrease diagnostic specificity of an urinary tract infection in children aged 2 months to 6 years in a properly collected urine if symptoms/fever and pyuria are present.
