这项概念验证性研究表明，不再常规报告非导尿内科和外科住院患者的尿培养结果，可以大大减少对无症状细菌的不必要的抗菌治疗，而无需显著增加实验室工作量。需要更大规模的研究来证实这种护理模式的普遍性、安全性和可持续性。
This proof-of-concept study demonstrates that no longer routinely reporting urine culture results from noncatheterized medical and surgical inpatients can greatly reduce unnecessary antimicrobial therapy for asymptomatic bacteriuria without significant additional laboratory workload. Larger studies are needed to confirm the generalizability, safety, and sustainability of this model of care.
