Detailed Description

This is a non-randomised prospective monocentric pilot study whose main objective is to describe the proportion of asymptomatic patients after 5 days of effective antibiotic therapy in an uncomplicated febrile urinary tract infection, in children between 3 months and 18 years of age. After being informed about the study, all patient meeting inclusion criteria will respond to a survey at D2, D5, D10 and D28 to evaluate the persistence of symptoms to determine the effectiveness of a 5-day course of antibiotic treatment. All patients will be treated in accordance to the French guidelines.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Other: Patient having urinary tract infection

Patients with a confirmed urinary tract infection in accordance with the GPIP (french Pediatric Infectious Disease Group) definition and inclusion criteria.

Other: Survey
Patients or their parents will complete a survey at D2, D5, D10 and D28 to assess the presence or absence of a symptom

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Effectiveness of treatment [Day 5]

    The main evaluation criteria aims to determine the effectiveness of a 5-day course of antibiotic treatment. Treatment failure is characterised by the presence at Day 5 of clinical signs (abdominal pain, urinary functional signs, urinary burns) and/or a fever ≥ at 38°C and/or a new positive cytobacteriological urine test performed after antibiotic therapy due to the persistence and/or reappearance of symptoms.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Leukocyte count [Day 1]

    Leukocyte count (in cell per mm3) in children with uncomplicated febrile urinary tract infections at diagnostic.

  2. Mode of sampling [Day 1]

    Leukocyturia rate (cell per mm3), according to the method of collection, on the sample carried out at the first consultation of children with febrile urinary tract infections at diagnostic.

  3. Rate of failure [Day 28]

    Measurement of the number of patients presenting a failure at Day 10 or a relapse at 28 days of treatment of a febrile urinary infection. This is characterised by the presence or reappearance of symptoms suggestive of a febrile urinary infection and/or fever without any other possible diagnosis and a positive cytobacteriological urine test with a phenotypically identical micro-organism on the new antibiogram

  4. Procalcitonin levels [Day 1]

    Procalcitonin levels (in µg/L) in children with uncomplicated febrile urinary tract infections at diagnostic.

  5. CRP levels [Day 1]

    C Reactive Protein (CRP) levels (in mg/l) in children with uncomplicated febrile urinary tract infections at diagnostic.

  6. Polynuclear cell count [Day 1]

    Blood polynuclear cell count (in cell per mm3) in children with uncomplicated febrile urinary tract infections at diagnostic.
