NES have produced two new pocket guides to support all health and social care staff who require to obtain or support a person to take either a midstream specimen of urine (MSU) or a catheter specimen of urine (CSU).
They outline the step by step correct procedures to follow for urine specimen collection to minimise the risk of possible contamination and the resultant incorrect diagnosis and antibiotic treatment.
The Pocket Guides are available to download from the NES website (see links below) and hard copies available on request.
If hard copies are wanted please contact NES with full details of your postal address and the number of copies you require to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
