UTI Patient Pathway

The final design outputs for this part of the project consisted of a proposed pathway for UTI testing in primary care settings and a device concept

The final pathways were:

• GP non complex (females aged 16-65 with no underlying conditions)
• GP complex (repeat infections, underlying conditions, men and children)
• Pharmacy (females 16-65, no underlying conditions or repeat infections)

To ensure that people were receiving the correct care, a strict screening/triage procedure would need to be in place in all pathways, and information would be provided to anyone who undertakes the test regardless of the outcome. This information would include information on self care, future prevention, follow up and when to seek help.

This film, created by Nifty Fox, shows the proposed pathway
