Overall, patients reported high medication adherence (mean score of 7.2\/8, with 8 being a perfect adherence score). Ten qualitative interviews were completed. Themes identified include generally high adherence to prescribed antimicrobial courses and high levels of patient satisfaction with current outpatient VHA SCI bladder care. The quantitative findings converge with these themes observed in the qualitative interviews; patients were satisfied with current urine testing and treatment practices.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Veterans with SCI are generally satisfied with their current UTI management and self\u2010report taking antimicrobials for UTIs as prescribed. Veterans with SCI typically report high trust in their SCI providers and value their advice on bladder care management. Therefore, it is imperative for clinicians to provide evidence\u2010based education to patients, as well as ensure that each prescribed course of antibiotics for UTI is clinically necessary. Information from this study will guide an intervention promoting appropriate urine testing and antimicrobial prescription practices by SCI providers.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/pmrj.12568","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,6]],"date-time":"2021-02-06T08:39:53Z","timestamp":1612600793000},"page":"1369-1375","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Experiences of veterans with spinal cord injury related to annual urine screening and antibiotic use for urinary tract infections"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Casey","family":"Hines\u2010Munson","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Innovations in Quality, Effectiveness and Safety Michael E.
