Urinary Tract Infections – Causes, Symptoms, Treatments, and more

health No Comments »

The urinary system is the body’s drainage system for removing wastes and extra water. It includes two kidneys, two ureters, a bladder, and a urethra. Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are the second most common type of infection in the body.

You may have a UTI if you notice:

Pain or burning when you urinate
Fever, tiredness, or shakiness
An urge to urinate often
Pressure in your lower belly
Urine that smells bad or looks cloudy or reddish
Pain in your back or side below the ribs

People of any age or sex can get UTIs. But about four times as many women get UTIs as men. You’re also at higher risk if you have diabetes, need a tube to drain your bladder, or have a spinal cord injury.

If you think you have a UTI it is important to see your doctor. Your doctor can tell if you have a UTI with a urine test. Treatment is with antibiotics.

If you have Recurrent UTIs, learn how to get rid of bladder infections in this video! You’ll learn about how some things can put you at a HIGHER RISK of getting a Bladder Infection, as well as FIVE EASY WAYS to prevent them. I will also demystify and explain the effects of Cranberries on UTIs.

Bladder Infections: To Treat or Not to Treat in Older Adults?

“Asymptomatic bacteriuria in long-term care is more common than actual Urinary Tract Infections. About 35 to 40% of men and about 50% of women in long-term care have it—that’s even higher for women with urinary incontinence.”

-Jamie Smith, MSN, FNP
_______________________________________________________________________

When someone is aged and frail, the risk of a bladder infection is higher, raising the chances of delirium, hospital admission, or even death.

In this episode of This Is Getting Old: Moving Towards An Age-Friendly World, Jamie Smith, a Family Nurse Practitioner in geriatrics and nursing home care, describes bladder infections and things you and healthcare professionals should know about helping the older adults decide whether or not to treat with antibiotics.

Part One of ‘Bladder Infections: To Treat or Not to Treat in Older Adults?’.

What Is A Bladder Infection?

A Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) a bacterial infection within the bladder. It’s an acute illness that affects the genitourinary system and is commonly known as a “bladder infection” – and means you have an infection of your genitourinary system, so your bladder, kidneys, ureters or urethra with a “positive urine” with a urine sample.

The typical symptoms include: burning sensation with urination, abnormal urgency and frequency in urination. In addition, you may have severe pubic pain or “gross hematuria” (where your pee turns different colors like pinkish or reddish).

Asymptomatic Bacteriuria (ASB), also known as a colonized state. ASB is where you have a positive urine sample, but lack the typical genitourinary symptoms that go along with a UTI. The presence of bacteria in ASB is in quantitative counts of ≥ 100,000 colony-forming units/milliliter (CFU/mL) or ≥ 100 CFU/mL in a catheterized specimen. Thus, in the absence of urinary tract symptoms, asymptomatic bacteriuria is determined by white blood cells in the urine.

“It’s critical to differentiate between UTI and colonized state because when you give antibiotics to older adults, that increases their risk of antibiotic resistance, drug to drug interaction, and increased health care cost.” – Jamie Smith, MSN, FNP.

To Treat or Not To Treat?

Telling the difference between a UTI and ASB is tricky in older adults, especially those in long-term care facilities because localized genitourinary symptoms are far less pervasive in them. Consequently, there have been differences in treatment protocols from place to place regarding a bladder infection.

✔️ Differences in Protocols For Treatment at ER/ Hospital vs Long-term care settings
Whenever a family member requests a patient to go out because they’re confused about whether it’s a UTI or ASB, one of the first things the ER does is check a Complete Blood Count (CBC) and a Basic Metabolic Panel (BMP). Even if the urine has trace amounts of bacteria, let’s say the patient is confused that they can’t tell if there are any genitourinary symptoms, the ER will typically go ahead and prescribe an antibiotic.

✔️ Protocols for Treatment at Skilled Nursing Facilities or at Home

Bladder infection treatments are different in long term care facilities or at home because the staff or family members can tell if the older adult is having symptoms. If the older adult is not having any symptoms associated with the urinary tract, that’s classified as colonized. We don’t treat colonized states because we look at Loeb’s or McGreer’s Criteria, and if they don’t qualify, we don’t treat them because of the risk of harm by giving them an antibiotic.

Risks of Harm in Older Adults

It’s imperative to differentiate between UTI and ASB (colonized state). Because when you give antibiotics to older adults, that increases their risk of Clostridium difficile (C. diff), antibiotic resistance, a drug to drug interaction, and increased health care cost.

Part Two of ‘Bladder Infections: To Treat or Not to Treat in Older Adults?’

Role of Cognition in Treating Asymptomatic Bacteriuria

Remember that treating ASB is not always straightforward. Long term care patients sometimes will have a cognitive impairment, and they can’t always tell you if the symptoms are there.

There are several tools that you can use. The AMDA Watchlist, for instance, is a urinary tract infection flip manual. This one-pager watchlist can be used by staff or family members, and it helps care providers figure out if it’s a UTI or colonized state.

Antibiotic Awareness: Urinary Tract Infection (UTI), Cystitis or Bladder Infection

health No Comments »

Watch this video to learn more about signs and symptoms of UTI and when to treat a UTI with antibiotics.
Transcript: Did you know bacteria can live in the bladder without causing an infection?
Hi, I’m Dr. Amit Desai, in partnership with Washington State Department of Health, I’m here to speak to you urinary tract infections, also known as cystitis or bladder infections.
The most important thing for you to remember today is that you should only take antibiotics for a bladder infection when you have symptoms and a positive urine test.
Bladder infections are very common bacterial infections in the bladder that can cause a feeling where you can’t wait to urinate, a need to urinate more often, and burning when urinating. Other possible symptoms include lower abdominal or flank pain, chills, fever, and blood in the urine.
A bacteria called E coli is the most common cause of bladder infection. But this bacteria can also live in the bladder without causing an infection.
For these reasons, bacteria found in the urine without any symptoms should only be treated in special cases like – women who are pregnant, and in people who are about to have a urologic surgery.
So remember, one way we can avoid unnecessary overuse of antibiotics is to avoid treating a positive test for bacteria when there are no symptoms. Also, it is important not to pressure your provider to prescribe antibiotics.
Thank you for taking the time to listen, I’m Dr. Amit Desai with the Washington State Department of Health.

Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) Signs & Symptoms (& Why They Occur)

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are infections (mostly bacterial) of the urinary system. UTIs occur more frequently in young women compared to other groups. Due to irritation and inflammation from infective organisms, UTIs have characteristic signs and symptoms. In this lesson, we discuss those signs and symptoms in detail and discuss the reason why they occur.

Stop a bladder or urinary tract infection in its tracks by learning what to look for and how to prevent it from getting worse.

Step 1: Check frequency of urination
Check your frequency of urination. A swollen, infected bladder will make you feel the urge to urinate more often.

Step 2: Pay attention to a burning sensation
Check for a burning sensation when urinating, a common symptom of a bladder infection.

Tip
Holding urine too long can encourage infection, so go when you have to go.

Step 3: Observe the color and smell of urine
Observe the color and smell of your urine. If your bladder is infected, urine may be dark yellow or greenish, with a foul odor.

Tip
If you take an over-the-counter drug for bladder infections and painful urination persists, see your doctor immediately.

Step 4: Check for pain in the stomach or pelvic area
Check for throbbing pain in your stomach or pelvic area, as this is indicative of an advanced infection.

Step 5: Watch for blood in the urine
Watch for blood in your urine and contact your physician immediately to prevent further damage to your urinary tract.

Step 6: Contact your physician
Contact your physician for an accurate diagnosis. No two people are alike when it comes to infection symptoms.

Did You Know?
Up to 30 percent of women will get a bladder infection in their lifetime.
