Title: INTERNATIONAL SPINAL CORD INJURY URINARY TRACT INFECTION BASIC DATA SET - Version 1.0
Abstract: Collection of data on urinary tract infection is universal when individuals with spinal cord lesions consult doctors with knowledge regarding spinal cord lesions. Interpretation of the data, however, is less standardized, as urinary tract infection in patients with spinal cord injury is not unambiguously defined. The purpose of the International Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) Basic Data Set for individuals with SCI is to standardize the collection and reporting of a minimal amount of information related to a possible UTI in daily practice in accordance with the purpose and vision of the International Spinal Cord Injury Data Sets (Biering-Sorensen et al., 2006). This will also make it possible to evaluate and compare results from various published studies.
