Urinary tract infections are the third most prevalent in humans after respiratory and gastrointestinal infections. In fact, bacterial infections of the urinary tract are the most common cause of both hospital and community hospital infections in patients.
Pelvic inflammatory diseases (PID) are infectious inflammatory diseases of the upper female genital tract. In addition, the infection can also spread to the abdomen. The classic patient with a high risk of developing a PMTCT is, first and foremost, a woman with multiple sexual partners and unprotected sex.
Key words: urethritis, PID, laboratory diagnostics, PCR, cultural research.
