PART 2
Topic: Recurrent UTI and Prostatitis
Using your patient review from your Unit 6 assignment, discuss the evidence-based guidelines you used to evaluate the diagnosis and management of your patient, and whether the approach was appropriate or in comparison to the diagnostic and management metrics in the guidelines.
Discuss alternatives to the approach that you think may have been completed differently and support your thesis with relevant sources. Also, describe the outcome goals whether they are a complete resolution or if this will become a chronic management issue and why.
