How can urinary tract infections be distinguished from asymptomatic bacteriuria in patients with urinary catheters?

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: In patients with urinary catheters, differentiating UTIs from asymptomatic bacteriuria hinges on the presence of systemic symptoms rather than typical urinary symptoms. Diagnosis should prioritize systemic manifestations and positive cultures from freshly replaced catheters to guide targeted treatment.
