The Risks of a UTI in Children

Risks that are making us more concerned about the UTI or increasing the pretest probability. Height of fever is it above 39 or below 39 is there another source of fever which is a little difficult to measure. If I found cellulitis if there was point tenderness over a bone something other to hang my head on that would reduce the likelihood of the UTI this has been confounded in older literature by using a positive culture as the definition of a UTI. Other risk factor is the age of the child less than 12 months or older than 12 months.
