Samples of urine from children who are not toilet trained can be obtained by "clean voided" bag samples, suprapubic bladder aspiration (SPA), or transurethral bladder catheterization (TUBC). SPA and TUBC are invasive but are the only valid ways to collect urine for culture in febrile young infants under two months of age and older infants and children with unexplained fever who are younger than two years of age and ill enough to merit immediate antimicrobial therapy.
