Order UTI TestA urinary tract infection (UTI) test is a laboratory evaluation used to detect and characterize infections in the urinary system. It typically combines a urinalysis with a urine culture when indicated, helping to identify the presence of infectious organisms and the body's inflammatory response to them.
About UTI Test in Portsmouth
The UTI test examines a urine sample for markers of infection and, in some cases, identifies the specific organism responsible.
The initial component is often a urinalysis, which screens for signs such as leukocyte esterase, nitrites, white blood cells, and red blood cells. These findings can suggest an infection but do not always identify the exact cause.
When a culture is performed, the sample is incubated to allow any bacteria or yeast to grow. This step can confirm an infection and determine which organism is present, which is useful when symptoms persist or recur.
Results are reported qualitatively or quantitatively, depending on the method. A positive culture typically includes the organism identified and, when performed, a susceptibility panel showing which antibiotics may be effective against it.
