“…Management of the complicating factor should be attempted if possible: if obstruction and/or residual urine are present, urinary tract drainage should be performed [ 55 ]; and if the patient has an indwelling urinary catheter, it should be changed [ 1 ].…”

Purpose of Review No specific guidelines have been developed for acute cystitis management during the COVID-19 pandemic. This review aims to provide up-to-date information about treatment and follow-up in patients with symptoms suggesting lower urinary tract infection. Recent Findings Uncomplicated cystitis does not need microbiological confirmation; thus, clinical diagnosis via telephone interview or questionnaires may be done. When complicated infections are suspected, in-person evaluation or close follow-up is mandatory. Antibiotic treatment is still the gold standard for treatment, although non-pharmacological strategies have also been suggested and further investigations are warranted. Summary Urinary tract infections are still a frequent reason for consultation that needs to be addressed in both primary care and specialized levels. Their management during the pandemic is similar than in precedent years, but telehealth options have emerged which can facilitate diagnosis and treatment.

Urinary tract infections are complications found mostly in older adults undergoing hip surgery. However, little is known about the impact of urinary tract infections on health at after post-hip fracture surgery, particularly in Thailand. This prospective study investigated the prevalence of urinary tract infections and their impact on length of stay, functional ability, re-admission, surgical site infections, and in-hospital mortality. The participants were 120 older adults undergoing hip surgery at four tertiary care hospitals in Bangkok, Thailand. Instruments for collection the data were the Demographic Data Questionnaire, Health Outcome Data Record Form—length of hospital stays, surgical site infections, re-admission, and in-hospital mortality, and the Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Firth’s logistic regression. Results demonstrated that the prevalence of urinary tract infections was 28.32%. Significantly, older adults who developed urinary tract infections had a 2.88-fold increased the risk of impaired functional ability four weeks after surgery and a 3.21-fold increased the risk of re-admission to the hospital compared to those without urinary tract infections. Findings suggest that nurses should continually evaluate urinary tract infections and related factors from admission to post-discharge, as urinary tract infections profoundly affect health outcomes. Strict compliance with guidelines or strengthening post-acute care services to prevent urinary tract infections and its consequences is recommended to promote and restore health, especially functional ability in older adults undergoing hip surgery.
