Role of Urine dipstick and Azithromycin for the Management of an Outbreak of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli Infection

2026-04-26

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> Purpose Shiga toxin-producing <italic>Escherichia coli</italic> (STEC) is a foodborne pathogen accounting for approximately 5–6% of cases of acute bloody diarrhea (ABD) in Europe. Herein, we report how an outbreak of STEC infection involving a group of scouts was managed with the pivotal role of urine dipstick testing for hemoglobinuria (uHb) to identify patients with ongoing hemol...
