    URTI is upper respitory tract infection - it's usually any infection that is in your respiratory tract, but hasn't entered your lungs (i think)

    Kel, urinary tract infections are UTI's

    Yes
    URTI = upper respitory tract infection.
    This is an infection of your upper chest, usually in the breathing tubes
