A urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common bacterial infection affecting any part of the urinary system. The UTI Profile is a laboratory test used to detect and identify the presence of infection, typically through urinalysis and, when indicated, urine culture. This profile helps clinicians confirm a UTI, determine the causative organism, and guide appropriate treatment.

About UTI Test in Cottage Grove

The UTI Profile combines standard urinalysis with urine culture to provide a comprehensive assessment of urinary tract health.

The profile typically begins with a urinalysis, which screens for signs of infection such as white blood cells, nitrites, and leukocyte esterase. If these markers are present, a urine culture is often performed to identify specific bacteria and determine their susceptibility to antibiotics.

Results are reported in two parts. The urinalysis component includes a description of physical, chemical, and microscopic findings. The culture component, if performed, lists the organism isolated and a sensitivity panel showing which antibiotics are likely effective.

Preparation is minimal. Follow the lab's instructions, which may include collecting a clean-catch midstream urine sample. Turnaround time is typically 1-3 business days, depending on whether a culture is required.
