dc.description.abstractUrinary tract infections (UTIs) are among the most common infectious diseases worldwide. This type of infections can be healthcare-associated or community-acquired and affects millions of people every year. Different diagnostic procedures are available to detect pathogens in urine and they can be divided into two main categories: laboratory-based and point-of-care (POC) detection techniques. Traditional methodologies are often timeconsuming, thus, achieving a rapid and accurate identification of pathogens is a challenging feature that has been pursued by many research groups and companies operating in this area. The purpose of this review is to compare and highlight advantages and disadvantages of the traditional and currently most used detection methods, as well as the emerging POC approaches and the relevant advances in on-site detection of pathogens ' mechanisms, suitable to be adapted to UTI diagnosis. Lately, the commercially available UTI self-testing kits and devices are helping in the diagnosis of urinary infections as patients or care givers are able to perform the test, easily and comfortably at home and, upon the result, decide when to attend an appointment/Urgent Health Care Unit.pt_PT
