Abstract:

Objective To study the consistency rate of UF-1000i automatic urine analyzer bacterial channel and mid-stream urine culturing,and to provide a reference for the early empirical use of antibiotics for urinary tract infection（UTI）. Methods Urine specimens were determined for bacterial culturing and urinary sedimentation analysis. Bacterial culturing was performed by Vitek 2 Compact. Urinary sedimentation analysis was performed by UF-1000i becterial channel. Results Th. Results of mid-stream urine culturing were as gold standard. For UF-1000i bacterial channel,the consistency rate,sensitivity and specificity of Gram-positive coccus were 90.7%,60.8% and 93.5%,and those of Gram-negative bacillus were 93.3%,76.7% and 96.8% （P<0.05）.Conclusions UF-1000i bacterial channel plays a role in the early clinical selection of antibiotics,especially in UTI caused by Gram-negative bacillus.
