Abstract in brief

The article discusses how urine tests, especially urine cultures, are often misused in hospitals, leading to unnecessary treatments for conditions like asymptomatic bacteriuria, and emphasizes the importance of quality improvement strategies to optimize their use.
Different types of interventions are reviewed, from strong, system-based approaches like suppressing urine culture results to weaker, education-only methods, with the recognition that mixed results suggest the need for multifaceted strategies.
To be effective and sustainable, urine culture stewardship programs should combine technical solutions with social and behavioral approaches, include ongoing feedback, and consider the unique drivers within each healthcare setting.]
