Abstract

Introduction: Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) are commonly observed in pregnancy because of the physiological and structural alterations in the genitourinary system. During pregnancy, the urinary tract undergoes functional and anatomical modifications, coupled with immune adaptations, which predispose women to ASB.

AIM: To determine the prevalence and risk factors (gestational diabetes mellitus, low socioeconomic status, high parity) of asymptomatic bacteriuria and its antibacterial susceptibility in pregnant women attending the Antenatal clinic for their first visit in SMS medical collage Jaipur.

Conclusion: Overall, the findings emphasize the need for regular antenatal screening and timely, culture-based treatment to reduce the risk of complications and improve maternal and neonatal outcomes.
