Best-evidence synthesis yields 42 health-education statements for pediatric UTI management

A systematic evidence synthesis across 21 databases (inception–Oct 2025) identified 14 publications and distilled 42 best-evidence statements covering 8 domains of pediatric UTI health education—including imaging indications—to guide clinician-led parent education. Retrospective…

• Design: 'best-evidence summary' following the JBI grading system; 14 sources included (4 clinical decisions, 5 guidelines, 1 evidence summary, 3 expert consensuses, 1 systematic review).
• Eight domains addressed: disease awareness, symptom recognition, diagnosis/evaluation, urine specimen collection, imaging examinations, treatment/medication, recurrence prevention, and follow-up—imaging is one component, not the primary focus.
• Key limitation: no quantitative outcomes (sensitivity, adherence rates, recurrence reduction) are reported; evidence quality grades per JBI are not detailed in the abstract, limiting appraisal of individual recommendation strength.
