Objective: To study the incidence of bacteriuria and antimicrobial susceptibility pattern during pregnancy with no presenting symptoms of UTI Materials and Methods: The study was conducted among 411 pregnant women (primi-or multigravida)on their first antenatal checkup visit in GMC hospital, Ajman(UAE).A structured questionnaire was administered to collect the demographic and health information from the subjects giving consent.The results of the laboratory investigations (bacteriuria, pus cells and culture sensitivity) were taken from the medical records.Result: Bacteriuria was present in 48 (11.7%) cases, and 10 samples sent for culture sensitivity showed positive growth in 3 samples (30%).Prevalence of culture positivity with no bacteriuria, but showing presence of significant number of pus cells was 22.2% (18/81).Out of total 91 samples cultured, various gram positive and gram negative organisms were isolated from 20 samples which showed variable sensitivity to different antibiotics.Conclusion: Asymptomatic bacteriuria among pregnant women suggests dormant urinary tract infection and it is suggested that a urine culture should be obtained from all women during antenatal checkup even in the absence of UTI symptoms to avoid complications.
