In yesterday’s "Weekly Medical Questions" column, we pushed the latest issue of NEJM Knowledge+ Question of the Week
.
【Weekly Doctors】Asymptomatic bacteriuria in patients with long-term indwelling catheterization, what is the most appropriate treatment? Today, we announce the answer
.
Do you see the answer? Of course, answering right is not the goal, but mastering the essentials and expanding knowledge is the kingly way
.
Answer: No treatment.
Key learning points: For patients with long-term indwelling catheters, when urine culture shows pan-sensitive E.
coli >100,000 CFU/mL and there are no symptoms, the best treatment is not to treat
.
Knowledge expansion Asymptomatic bacteriuria is seen in almost all patients with long-term indwelling catheters, even if urinalysis shows pyuria, no treatment is needed
.
Screening for asymptomatic bacteriuria has not been recommended by the guidelines
.
Although bacteriuria increases the risk of symptomatic urinary tract infections, treatment of asymptomatic bacteriuria does not reduce the frequency of future symptomatic urinary tract infections or improve other outcomes
.
The only groups that benefit from asymptomatic bacteriuria screening and treatment are pregnant women and patients who receive invasive urinary tract treatment and cause mucosal bleeding
.
【Weekly Medical Questions】will continue to be updated
.
