Скачать или смотреть Recurrent UTIs: Controlling Bladder Infections w/ Dr. Anne Cameron | Urology Podcast Ep. 144

In this crossover episode of BackTable OBGYN with Urology, Dr. Suzette Sutherland, Director of Female Urology at the University of Washington, and Dr. Anne Cameron, Professor of Urology at the University of Michigan, share their insights on the prevention and management of urinary tract infections (UTIs).

First, they emphasize the importance of dispelling misconceptions about recurrent UTIs being a result of poor hygiene or incorrect behaviors, explaining that they can stem from genetic or hormonal risk factors. Dr. Cameron describes her algorithm for managing UTIs in specific patient populations. She further discusses the impact of factors such as fluid intake, bowel habits, and vaginal health on the incidence of UTIs. Dr. Cameron also highlights the potential for UTIs in diabetic patients on certain medications and the importance of a collaborative approach with diabetic healthcare teams. Additionally, the doctors explore various treatment strategies, such as cranberry supplements and gentamicin bladder installations, cautioning against antibiotic overuse due to the risk of resistance.
