Defining the Urethritis Syndrome in Men Using Patient Reported Symptoms
View through CrossRef
Abstract
To evaluate self-reported symptoms to guide urethritis diagnosis, symptomatic men being evaluated for urethritis were asked about 7 symptoms captured during history taking. Discharge and dysuria were significantly associated with urethritis and, when combined with genital irritation and itching, identified 95% of urethritis cases; odor and urinary frequency performed poorly.
