ABSTRACT

From the study, Fifty (50) samples of urine were collected from pregnant women attending antenatal clinic at Federal Medical Centre Umuahia, with sterile bottles, to determine the asymptomatic bacteriuria among pregnant women population. Out of 50 samples tested, 20 (40%) were found to have asymptomatic bacteriuria while 30 (60%) had non bacteriuria. The frequency of isolation of organism was Staphylococcus aureus (8.4%), Escherichia coli (5.2.%), Klebsella (2.1%) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (5.2%).Pregnant women in their third trimester had the highest with respect to age while trader had highest with respect to occupation. This study emphasizes the need for routine screening of the urine of pregnant women for asymptomatic bacteriuria.
