Peezy Midstream reduces unnecessary antibiotics

The Practising Midwife AMR in pregnancy feature

9th September2019/in Uncategorised /by Forte Medical

Unreliable urine screening in pregnancy can lead to the prescribing of antibiotics that may not be needed. Our feature on page 12 of The Practising Midwife outlines the dangers of unnecessary antibiotic use in pregnancy and how antimicrobial resistance can be triggered in the womb. Accurate urine collection is a powerful tool to take women and their unborn children off the frontline of AMR.

Helping healthcare practitioners to remove doubt on the #urine samples they've taken. Currently 1 in 4 samples are contaminated due to the way it has been taken. These samples lead to a waste of time and money for both the #NHS and the patient. #patientcare #uti #urology #peezy
