Presentation, Treatment, and Natural Course of Severe Symptoms of Urinary Tract Infections Measured by a Smartphone App: Observational and Feasibility Study.

Background: Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of the most common conditions in women. Current information on the presentation, management, and natural course of the infection is based on paper diaries filled out and subsequently posted by patients.

Objective: The aim of this study is to explore the feasibility of a smartphone app to assess the natural course and management of UTIs.

GPs' attitudes towards the diagnosis and treatment of male urinary tract infections: a qualitative interview study in Ireland.

Background: In general practice, males represent around 20% of the total number of urinary tract infection (UTI) consultations. The majority of UTI research focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of women with UTIs but there is little evidence on how male UTIs are treated.

Aim: To better understand GPs' attitudes towards the diagnosis and treatment of male UTIs.
