    Abstract:
    Urinary tract infections are frequent. The aim of these guidelines is to improve the management of urionary tract infections. Increasing antibiotic prescriptions may increase bacterial drug resistance. Asymptomatic bacteriuria, bacterial count, pyuria are defined and the clinical value of the bacterial culture and urinary dipstick test are discussed. The good antibiotic use depends on bacteriological, pharmaceutical, patient characteristics and economic findings which are precised in these guidelines.
