Consequences of asymptomatic bacteriuria in the elderly

International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents, 1994
Asymptotic bacteriuria increases with advancing age for the ambulatory population. Men and women who are resident in long-term care facilities have an exceptionally high prevalence of bacteriuria. Despite this high prevalence and a high incidence of bacteriuria, urinary infection contributes little to morbidity and mortality in the elderly.

Asymptomatic Bacteriuria in Health and Glomeruionephropathies

Nephron, 1986
In a comparative study of prevalence of asymptomatic bacteriuria in a Thai population, 1.4% of 955 apparently healthy adults (12 female and 1 male) were found to have positive urine culture. Of these, 6 individuals grew staphylococcal coagulase-negative, 3 grew E. coli, and the rest grew various other organisms.

Screening for Asymptomatic Bacteriuria in Pregnancy

Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Canada, 2005
To compare the following 4 screening strategies for detecting asymptomatic bacteriuria (ABU) in pregnancy: urine testing with leukocyte-esterase-nitrite (LEN) strips at each prenatal visit followed by a urine culture if positive; a single urine culture at fewer than 20 weeks' gestation; 2 urine cultures, at fewer than 20 weeks' gestation and at 28 ...

PYELONEPHRITIS is a common and often severe complication of diabetes mellitus. It is generally believed that pyelonephritis occurs more frequently among diabetic than among nondiabetic persons.1 2 3 Unfortunately, most of the analyses of the relation of diabetes to susceptibility to infection of the urinary tract are obtained from hospital and autopsy ...

Antibiotics for asymptomatic bacteriuria in pregnancy

2001
Up to 30% of mothers develop acute pyelonephritis if asymptomatic bacteriuria is untreated. Asymptomatic bacteriuria may have a role in preterm birth, or it may be a marker for low socioeconomic status and thus, low birth weight.The objective of this review was to assess the effect of antibiotic treatment for asymptomatic bacteriuria on persistent ...
