contents Piuria en examen microscópico de orina no centrifugada: su asociación a infección de tracto urinario. Daniel Angel LUJAN ROCA Giovanni Rodolfo PAJUELO CAMACHO Medicina Pyuria urine culture urinary tract infection Objective: To study the clinical application of pyuria detection in uncentrifuged urine and its association with urinary tract infection. Material and methods: Urine samples of 182 patients were evaluated. A microscopic exam was carried out and urine culture. Pyuria was defined like presence > 5 white blood cells/high power field. Results: Sensibility was 25.8%, specificity 94.7%, positive predictive value 50.0% and negative predictive value 86.1%. Conclusions: Pyuria presence has a limited value to detect ill people; but pyuria absence is useful to define people without urinary tract infection 2006 artículo científico 1018-130X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=338029552003 es http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3380 Revista Médica Herediana application/pdf Universidad Peruana Cayetano Heredia Revista Médica Herediana (Perú) Num.2 Vol.17
