Patients with a positive voided urine culture who also had a catheterized urine culture in our system were included.

Eighty percent of the cohort was post\u2010menopausal. Although all patients had positive voided specimens, only 53 (49.5%) had positive catheterized specimens.

Our study suggests that in female patients who have vague symptoms of UTI, obtaining catheterized specimens may be beneficial in avoiding the overdiagnosis of UTIs and the overuse of antibiotics. Larger, prospective studies testing our hypothesis are necessary, and would greatly assist in establishing clinical practices that reduce the amount of antibiotics inappropriately prescribed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/nau.23553","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,3,31]],"date-time":"2018-03-31T11:04:51Z","timestamp":1522494291000},"page":"1996-2001","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Utility of catheterized specimens in reducing overdiagnosis of urinary tract infections in women"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"37","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0456-815X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Carrie M.","family":"Aisen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons New York New York"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Erica","family":"Ditkoff","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons New York New York"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Arindam","family":"RoyChoudhury","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biostatistics Columbia Universi\u00ad\u00adty Mailman School of Public Health New York New York"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Michele","family":"Corish","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons New York New York"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Matthew P.","family":"Rutman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons New York New York"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Doreen E.","family":"Chung","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons New York New York"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gina M.","family":"Badalato","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons New York New York"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kimberly L.","family":"Cooper","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Urology Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons New York New York"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,3,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/nrmicro3432"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1047-2797(00)00072-7"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/nrurol.2010.190"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/cid\/cis552"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.287.20.2701"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/acem.12171"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1345\/aph.1R419"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archinternmed.2011.565"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajem.2011.04.007"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1655","DOI":"10.1093\/cid\/civ696","article-title":"Asymptomatic bacteriuria treatment is associated with a higher prevalence of antibiotic resistant strains in women with urinary tract infections","volume":"61","author":"Cai T","year":"2015","journal-title":"Clin Infect Dis"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmj.c199"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMoa1302186"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12875-016-0465-4"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archinte.160.16.2537"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/cid\/ciq257"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1471-2490-4-4"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.mcna.2010.08.023"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_19_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11884-016-0351-x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_20_1","unstructured":"Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
