Abstract

The aims of this study were to establish and compare asymptomatic bacteriuria (ASB) inpregnant and non-pregnant women, to determine the agents of ASB in both groups and toinvestigate antibiotic sensitivity to agents of ASB. 323 pregnant and 75 non-pregnant womenwho were admitted to Erbaa State Hospital, Department of Obstetric and Gynecology Unit wereincluded to the study. ASB was diagnosed in 22 pregnant (6.8%) and 4 (5.3%) non-pregnantwomen. It was not statistically significant. All pregnant women with ASB were treated accordingto antibiotic sensitivity of bacteria. To decrease acute pyelonephritis in pregnant women and toavoid maternal and fetal risks ascociated with ASB (premature delivery, premature rupture ofmembrane, delivery of low-birth weight fetus), all pregnant women should be investigated aboutASB and all pregnant women with ASB should be treated with appropriate antibiotics

Gebelerde Asemptomatik Bakteriüri Sıklığının Araştırılması

Abstract

Bu çalışmada gebelerde ve gebe olmayan kadınlarda asemptomatik bakteriüri (ASB) sıklığınınaraştırılması ve karşılaştırılması, her iki grupta ASB etkenlerinin tesbit edilmesi ve ASBetkenlerinin antibiyotik duyarlılıklarının belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaçla Erbaa DevletHastanesi Kadın Hastalıkları ve Doğum polikliniğine başvuran 323 gebe ve 75 gebe olmayankadın çalışma kapsamına alınmıştır. Gebelerin 22’sinde (%6,8) gebe olmayanların ise 4’ünde(%5,3) ASB saptanmıştır. Aralarında istatistiki bir fark yoktur. ASB saptanan gebelerbakterilerin antibiyotik duyarlıklıklarına göre tedavi edilmiştir. Akut pyelonefrit sıklığınıazaltmak ve ASB ile ilişkili maternal ve fetal komplikasyonları (erken doğum, erken membranrüptürü, düşük doğum ağırlıklı bebek doğurma) önlemek için, gebelerde ASB araştırmasıyapılmalı ve ASB saptanan olgular uygun antibiyotiklerle tedavi edilmelidir
