La Infección Urinaria (ITU) se define como la invasión, multiplicación y colonización del tracto urinario por gérmenes que habitualmente provienen de la región perineal (lo que rodea ano y genitales.)
Es importante además de sospecharlo, confirmarlo
Lo que debe ser confirmado por un cultivo de orina con un recuento de colonias superior a a 100 000 colonias por ml si la muestra es tomada con bolsa recolectora o de la parte media de la micción (segundo chorro).

¿Cual es la frecuencia en nuestro medio?
La incidencia exacta en el niño no se conoce, en recién nacidos se estima en 1% con una mayor proporción de varones afectados (relación hombre y mujeres es 3:1), en lactantes 3 a 5% con igual proporción hombre-mujer, y en preescolares y escolares una incidencia del 2% con una clara preponderancia en mujeres (H:M = 1:5).
A los siete años de edad, un 8,4% de las niñas y 1,7% de los niños, habrán sufrido al menos un episodio.
Examen físico: El médico palpa la zona abdominal y pélvica del paciente para detectar los lugares con dolor o con enrojecimiento, que son tres los puntos urinarios: riñónm costado del ombligo y el tercer punto positivo al costado del ombligo pero algo más bajo y siempre comparando el dolor en relación al otro lado.

A urinary tract infection (UTI) is a bacterial infection that affects any part of the urinary tract. Although urine contains a variety of fluids, salts, and waste products, it usually does not have bacteria in it.[1] When bacteria get into the bladder or kidney and multiply in the urine, they cause a UTI. The most common type of UTI is a bladder infection which is also often called cystitis. Another kind of UTI is a kidney infection, known as pyelonephritis, and is much more serious. Although they cause discomfort, urinary tract infections can usually be quickly and easily treated with a short course of antibiotics.[2] Studies have shown that breastfeeding can reduce the risk of UTI’s in infants.[3]

Which is the frequency in our way?
The exact incidence in the child is not known, in newborn babies 3 are estimated in 1 % with a major proportion of affected males (relation man and women it is 3:1), in nursing to 5 % with equal proportion man – woman, and in preschool and school an incidence of 2 % with a clear preponderance in women (H:M = 1:5).
Seven years after age, 8,4 % of the girls and 1,7 % of the children, will have suffered at least an episode.
Physical examination: The doctor feels the abdominal and pelvic zone of the patient to detect the places with pain or with reddening, that are three the urinal points: kidney, cost of the bellybutton and the third positive point to the side of the bellybutton but something more down and always comparing the pain in relation to another side of the body.

Symptoms
========

Symptoms of kidney stones include:

* Colicky pain: “loin to groin”. Often described as “the worst pain ever experienced”.
* Hematuria: blood in the urine, due to minor damage to inside wall of kidney, ureter and/or urethra.
* Pyuria: pus in the urine.
* Dysuria: burning on urination when passing stones (rare). More typical of infection.
* Oliguria: reduced urinary volume caused by obstruction of the bladder or urethra by stone, or extremely rarely,
simultaneous obstruction of both ureters by a stone.
* Abdominal distention.
* Nausea/vomiting: embryological link with intestine — stimulates the vomiting center.
* Fever and chills.
* Hydronephrosis
* Postrenal azotemia: when kidney stone blocks ureter
