''This page is for pediatric patients; see [[Acute cystitis]] for adult patients.''
==Background==
*Most common SBI, accounts for 5-8% of children presenting for fever without clear source
*Associated with bacteremia in up to 30% of infants 4-8wk of age
*[[E. coli]] is responsible for ~80% of UTIs
*After 1yr of age, occult UTI with normal UA extremely rare 
*After 2yr of age, UTI remains common in girls (but associated with symptoms) 
*UTI in adolescent girl is suggestive of intercourse
*Prevalence of UTI in [[bronchiolitis]] is only 0.8% based on 2019 meta-analysis, which is far lower than in previous studies, suggesting less need for automatic testing for UTI in bronchiolitis<ref>McDaniel CE et al. Association of Diagnostic Criteria With Urinary Tract Infection Prevalence in Bronchiolitis: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis. JAMA Pediatr. 2019;173(3):269-277. doi:10.1001/jamapediatrics.2018.5091.</ref>

==Clinical Features==
*Infants/young children: [[fever (Peds)|fever]] without other source 
*Older children: 
**[[Dysuria]], frequency, or other urinary complaints
**+/- [[abdominal pain (peds)|abdominal]]/[[back pain]]
*UTI + [[fever (Peds)|fever]] = [[pyelonephritis]]

==Differential Diagnosis==
{{Pediatric abdominal pain DDX}}

{{Pediatric fever DDX}}

==Evaluation==
===Workup===
*[[Urinalysis]] 
**Obtain clean catch specimen '''OR''' cath UA 
***Neg UA = neg LE, nit, GS & <5 WBC 
**Bag urine results in 83% false positive; only useful if negative 
***UTI diagnosis cannot be established reliably through bag urine culture (Evidence A; strong recommendation; AAP 2011)
*Urine culture  
**Send on all patients except for: 
***1. Low-risk patients with normal UA and another explanation for symptoms 
***2. Older adolescent females with very high post-test probability without severe illness 
**20% of +Urine culture will have negative UA
**Do not send urine bag specimen for culture when UA is negative and clinical suspicion is relatively low<ref>Kim GA and Koo JW. Validity of bag urine culture for predicting urinary tract infections in febrile infants: a paired comparison of urine collection methods. Korean J Pediatr. 2015 May; 58(5): 183–189.</ref>
***False positives are high due to bag contamination
