Abstract

Methods In a 2010 survey of 1000 ID physicians, we presented a case vignette about prevention of uncomplicated UTIs. “Ms. Smith is a 23 y.o. female who presents with a history of recurrent bacterial UTIs. In the past, she has self-treated with antibiotics at the first sign of infection; however she is now interested in preventing future occurrences. Previous work up has revealed no predisposing factors.”We also presented a research summary of an article demonstrating evidence of efficacy of cranberry extract for UTI prevention.
