Standard urine culture is the gold standard for diagnosing urinary tract infections (UTIs) but fails to differentiate true UTI from asymptomatic bacteriuria, which is important to prevent the overuse of antibiotics. Correlation with the presence or absence of pyuria can be helpful in giving a hint of the true situation. With the help of Laboratory Information System (LIS), patients' urinalysis reports can be conveniently accessed and compared simultaneously with appropriate reports. In our study, a quality improvement initiative was planned for appropriate reporting of urine culture and antimicrobial susceptibility testing using information obtained through LIS.

实验室信息系统 (LIS) 时代尿培养诊断管理的质量改进 (QI) 举措。

标准尿培养是诊断尿路感染 (UTI) 的金标准，但无法区分真正的尿路感染和无症状菌尿，而这对于防止过度使用抗生素非常重要。与脓尿存在与否的相关性有助于提示真实情况。借助实验室信息系统 (LIS)，可以方便地访问患者的尿液分析报告，并同时与适当的报告进行比较。在我们的研究中，计划采用通过 LIS 获得的信息来适当报告尿培养和抗菌药物敏感性测试的质量改进举措。
