Answer to Question 2

When it is suspected that the patient has a urinary tract infection, the physician orders this test to find the cause of the infection and the best treatment for it. The culture involves using some of the patient's urine to grow organisms that are present in the urine. The organisms are identified and subjected to sensitivity testing with antibiotic disks to determine which antibiotic drug would be most effective in killing the bacterium causing the patient's urinary tract infection.
