<strong>Urinary</strong> tract infection<br />
(English)<br />
What is a urinary tract<br />
infection?<br />
A urinary tract infection (UTI) is an<br />
infection <strong>of</strong> the bladder or kidneys. It is<br />
one <strong>of</strong> the most common bacterial<br />
diseases in children.<br />
raum<br />
(kidney)<br />
zais zis<br />
(bladder)<br />
Girls are more<br />
likely to get a UTI<br />
than boys,<br />
especially after the<br />
first few months <strong>of</strong><br />
life, because they<br />
have a short urethra<br />
(yu-reeth-rah). The<br />
urethra is the tube<br />
for urination,<br />
leading out from the<br />
bladder. Girls ages<br />
2 to 6 are at the<br />
highest risk.<br />
Risk also increases if the child is born<br />
with a urinary tract problem, or has<br />
trouble with toilet training.<br />
What causes UTIs?<br />
UTIs are <strong>of</strong>ten caused by bacteria<br />
(germs) that back up into the urethra<br />
from the skin. The most common<br />
bacteria are found in the bowel. For<br />
this reason, always wipe from front to<br />
back after going to the bathroom or<br />
during diaper changes.<br />

How should I care for my child?<br />
Make an appointment for a urine test to<br />
check for germs. If the test is positive,<br />
an antibiotic will be prescribed.<br />
Treat a UTI with a prescribed<br />
antibiotic. If it is not treated, the<br />
symptoms may go away but the germs<br />
will stay. The germs may back up<br />
through the ureters into the kidneys. A<br />
kidney infection can cause permanent<br />
kidney damage. Give the antibiotic<br />
for as long as the doctor tells you.<br />
Meanwhile, make another appointment<br />
for about 3 days after the antibiotic is<br />
due to run out. Your child will need<br />
another urine test to be sure that the<br />
infection is gone.<br />
X-rays <strong>of</strong> the kidneys <strong>and</strong> bladder may<br />
also be needed to check for anatomy<br />
problems that may have caused a UTI.<br />
Discuss this with your doctor.The X-ray<br />
may be scheduled with your follow-up<br />
visit or at another time.<br />
These health practices help to treat <strong>and</strong><br />
may prevent a UTI:<br />
• Encourage drinking lots <strong>of</strong> fluids.<br />
Avoid caffeine (cola, chocolate,<br />
c<strong>of</strong>fee, tea), as it irritates the urinary<br />
tract.<br />
• After toilet use <strong>and</strong> when bathing or<br />
showering, always wipe from front<br />
to back to keep germs from the<br />
bowel away from the urethra.<br />
Avoid rubbing back <strong>and</strong> forth.<br />
Teach your child how to do this<br />
correctly.<br />

• Showers are better than baths, if<br />
your child is old enough.<br />
• No bubble bath, shampoo, or<br />
perfumed soap in the bath water.<br />
They can irritate the sensitive skin<br />
in the area <strong>and</strong> help germs get in.<br />
Wash your child’s bottom with plain<br />
water.<br />
• Don’t let the child sit in the bath<br />
longer than 15 minutes. Have your<br />
child urinate after the bath.<br />
• Change diapers <strong>of</strong>ten. Leaving a<br />
wet or dirty diaper on gives the<br />
germs more chance to go up the<br />
urethra.<br />
• Have children change underpants<br />
daily. Underpants should be made<br />
<strong>of</strong> cotton <strong>and</strong> should not be too<br />
tight.<br />
• Teach children to urinate <strong>of</strong>ten—<br />
every 2 to 4 hours —so the bladder<br />
doesn’t get too full. Remind them<br />
to go to the bathroom before<br />
beginning activities or going where<br />
bathrooms are not h<strong>and</strong>y (such as<br />
car trips or playing outside).<br />
• Do not use fabric s<strong>of</strong>tener dryer<br />
sheets; they can irritate the skin.<br />
• Avoid constipation.<br />
• If urinating is painful, have your<br />
child sit in a bathtub <strong>of</strong> plain warm<br />
water <strong>and</strong> urinate into the water.<br />
• Sexually active females should<br />
urinate as soon as possible after<br />
intercourse to flush out germs that<br />
may have entered the urethra during<br />
sex.<br />
