In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This project aims to improve the diagnosis and management of urinary tract symptoms in older women by comparing three common treatment strategies-empiric antibiotics, urinalysis-guided therapy, and culture-directed care-in a randomized trial. By integrating patient-reported outcomes, laboratory data, the study will identify which patients benefit from antibiotics and which can safely avoid them. Findings will inform precision care strategies and promote antibiotic stewardship while improving symptom outcomes and quality of life in this high-risk population.
