NGS will be performed on voided urine collected as routine care approximately 30 days prior to surgery. Results will be presented to Infectious Disease pharmacist within 48-72 hours to help select the most appropriate antibiotics, and independently as part of routine care, surgeons will choose the antibiotic that they would use in each case, while the Infectious Disease pharmacists would select their optimum choice. Approximately 220 subjects will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either NGS antibiotic recommendation or standard of care (SOC) prophylaxis prescribed treatment. Subjects assigned to standard of care will have urine cultures sent for analysis, and the physician will choose antibiotics based on results as per usual practice. Subjects assigned to the NGS group, in addition to routine urine culture results, will have NGS urine culture results sent to an investigational drrug (ID) pharmacist, and recommendations will be shared with the physician to determine the antibiotic selection. The physician will ultimately decide the appropriate antibiotics to prescribe. Approximately 7-14 days after surgery, the research staff will conduct a telephone call to ask about any post-operative infections, complications, and any additional antibiotics that were prescribed.
