Urine culture refers to the cultivation of bacteria in normal urine, which should be sterile liquid. Urine culture is to take urine, eliminate external bacterial interference, accurately detect whether there are bacteria in urine, pathogens or conditional pathogens. The significance of urine bacterial culture lies in monitoring whether the urinary system of human body, including kidney, bladder and urethra are healthy and sterile. If there are bacteria, antibiotic sensitivity experiments should be made for this bacteria, and sensitive antibiotics should be selected for treatment. It provides great help for clinical treatment programs. If urine samples are taken, it is generally necessary to clean the perineum and take urine in the middle. For critically ill patients, urine can be taken by catheterization. Sterile operation should be strictly carried out during the operation to prevent urinary system infection caused by catheterization. Urine is generally the best urine in the morning.
