Abstract
Waning interest in urinary tract infection (UTI) research has limited clini cal advances during the past two decades. Although care has improved for so me specific UTI syndromes. there is limited evidence for most of the decisi ons made each day in the management of these infections. Additional clinica l research is necessary to improve UTI prevention and care strategies. (C) 2001 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. and International Society of Chemot herapy. All rights reserved.
