Urine Collection, Storage and Preservation
Laboratory Practice Survey
The American Society for Microbiology (ASM) and the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) are conducting a
survey to understand laboratories’ current practices related to
the collection, storage and preservation of urine for microbiological culture. The goal of the study is to improve the diagnosis
and management of patients with urinary tract infection. This
survey will take approximately 20 minutes to complete; participation is voluntary.
The results from the survey will be compiled and shared in
aggregate as a learning tool, presented at professional conferences, and potentially published in a professional journal in the
fıeld of laboratory science. All information collected in this
survey will be kept in a secure manner; your IP address will NOT
be retained.
Visit https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/CDN26NN to complete the survey. Thank you for taking the time to complete this
survey by (date to be determined upon OMB approval). Your
feedback is important for guiding ASM and CDC’s efforts to
improve laboratory practice. Contact clinmicro@asmusa.org
