Pediatric Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi, welcome to healthcaremagic. The urine culture has grown klebsiella shows that there is a urinary tract infection which may present as fever and pain while passing urine. It is common in children who have undergone some surgery and were put on indwelling catheter for urine drainage. But, not only the culture report is required, we also require the colony counts and the mode of collection of urine to tell exactly whether it is significant or not as a cause of fever and sepsis. Crp is high so it is definite that sepsis is there. Investigating doctors might be trying to find the cause out of which urinary tract infection is one of them.
