ABSTRACT = {Urinary tract infections (UTIs) remain a common 
clinical problem in both the community and healthcare-associated settings. Each patient should be carefully 
assessed to ensure that a correct diagnosis is made and that 
antimicrobial therapy is appropriately prescribed—defined 
as using a clinically indicated agent in the correct dose 
and route of administration, for the correct duration—for 
symptomatic patients, and avoided for most asymptomatic 
patients. This should help stem the growing tide of 
antimicrobial resistance and allow for the continued use 
of simpler, less expensive agents. Continued surveillance 
and monitoring of antimicrobial resistance rates will be 
critical to help formulate and update future treatment 
recommendations for all categories of patients with UTIs.},
