Abstract

Rapid and reliable tests are essential for the diagnostic laboratory confirmation of urinary tract infections (UTIs). Until now, UTI has been confirmed by the microbiology culture of urine, requiring at least 48-hour turnaround time (TAT), with a standardized microscopic method being widely favored. Automated urine flow cytometry, however, has recently been used to improve the rapid TAT by analyzing the urine sediment. This study therefore aimed to compare the diagnostic value of the Shih-Yung conventional microscopic and urine flow cytometry methods in the detection of leukocyte and bacterial parameters of patients with UTIs in an outpatient clinic.
