📋Overview
Urinary Tract Infections involve the colonization of the urinary system by pathogens, most commonly Escherichia coli bacteria. These infections can manifest in different areas, including the urethra, bladder, ureters, and kidneys, often presenting as cystitis or pyelonephritis.
This condition represents a frequent cause for clinical evaluation in medical settings worldwide. The classification of the infection typically depends on which part of the urinary tract is affected, with lower tract involvement being a common clinical finding.
