abnormal structure or function of the urinary tract (complicated
UTI). - Catheter-associated UTI is the most common cause of

recommended for men with persistent haematuria, voiding

prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), failure of initial therapy, or
signs of upper tract infection. - Should be treated with a
fluoroquinolone antibiotic for 7 to 14 days. Asymptomatic
bacteriuria does not require treatment except before urological
procedures. Other related conditions Last updated: May 08, 2013
