Screening for bacteriuria in children: comparison of two dip-tests.

J G Mongeau, J E Robillard, Y Brousseau.   

Abstract

Two dip-tests, Testuria and Uricult, were studied as screening tests for bacteriuria in children. Both tests showed a very good correlation with a standard method of urine culture.Testuria is easier to read and more accurate; however, it shows more "doubtful" results. Uricult presents the advantages of showing fewer "doubtful" results, and of differentiating between gram-positive and gram-negative organisms.The use of both tests should be limited to screening for bacteriuria. Certainly they are no substitute for accepted methods of urine culture.
