Rai Score

The Rai Score is a tool used by healthcare providers to assess the likelihood that a patient has a urinary tract infection (UTI). It considers various signs, symptoms, and test results—like common symptoms (burning, urgency), urine test findings, and other factors—to give a numerical score. A higher Rai Score indicates a greater chance of infection, helping doctors decide whether to start treatment or perform further testing. It simplifies decision-making by combining multiple indicators into a single, easy-to-understand score, improving accuracy and efficiency in diagnosing UTIs.
