A urine culture and sensitivity test, specifically for aerobic bacteria, is a diagnostic tool used to identify and treat bacterial infections in the urinary tract, most commonly a urinary tract infection (UTI). This test involves collecting a urine sample and testing it in a lab to see if bacteria grow (culture) and which antibiotics the bacteria are sensitive to (sensitivity). UTIs are more frequent in women, but men can also get them. Symptoms of a UTI can include burning urination, frequent urination, and pain in the lower abdomen. By identifying the specific bacteria causing the infection and determining which antibiotics they are susceptible to, this test allows for targeted and effective treatment of UTIs.
