Urinary system infections are common in clinical practice,especially in the female population with a high inci-dence.However,there is no unified standard for clinical diagnosis,classification,and treatment,leading to inconsisten-cies,even within internal medicine and surgery textbooks.In March 2023,The European Association of Urology(EAU)published the latest guidelines on urologic infections.Compared with the 2022 version,the prevention of recurrent urinary tract infections,perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis,and prostate biopsy have been updated in the 2023 version of the guideline,and new contents of genitourinary tuberculosis had been added.This article interprets the relevant contents of urinary tract infection from the new guidelines to provide evidence-based instructions for general practitioners on the diag-nosis,treatment,and standardized management of urinary tract infection.
