Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
number of urinary tract infection (UTI): <br>The criteria for diagnosis of UTI includes at least 2 of 3 items below: <br>1 urinary tract symptoms (dysuria, frequency, urgency)<br>2. Microbiology positive on urine culture<br>3. Require antibiotics treatment<br>[With in 12 months post kidney transplantation];Cost saving: <br>It will be calculated by the business manager by comparing the incidence of cystoscopy and the associated cost of day admission for cystoscopy between the groups that is assessed by data linkage to patient medical records. <br><br><br><br>[within 12 months post kidney transplantation];Incidence of Urine leakage: <br>The criterion for diagnosis of urine leakage includes any one of 2 items below;<br>1.
