Urinary Tract Infection


My first exam for this final year was urology, and alhamdulillah, all praises to Him, I passed the exam. One of the question was about urinary tract infection (UTI), urosepsis and septic shock. How would you classify UTI?


Besides being classified into the causal pathogens and uncomplicated/ complicated types, UTI can also be classified into nonspecific and specific types. But ya, the later classification is also based on the pathogens. Nonspecific infection means that you can find the causal pathogens in urine with standard methods while for the specific one, unless you use uncommon methods, you wouldn't find them in the urine. 


So, what is the uncomplicated UTI?(UTI can also be classified into uncomplicated and complicated types. forgot to mention it above.) Remember this: It's the infection that happens to younghealthymenstruatingnon-pregnant females, with no anomalies. The complicated type? Other than those mentioned. As simple as that. 

That's all for now. Till then, majulah sukan untuk Praha. ;)
