Multicentre Prospective Observational Cohort Study Aiming to Collect Medical Data, Create a Database to Facilitate Clinical and Fundamental Research Into Urinary Tract Infections With the Ultimate Goal of Improving Their Treatment.

Condition(s) studied

Study summary

The goal of this prospective observational study is to collect epidemiological, clinical, microbiological, genetic, and behavioral data on individuals with UTIs. The goal is to better understand which interventions are effective and, subsequently, to facilitate studies that will improve our understanding of the condition, enhance patient care and relief, and help combat antimicrobial resistance. This project will enable us to study episodes of urinary tract infections over a period of at least 2 years and up to 5 years.
