Antibiotic resistant profile of asymptomatic bacteriuria in pregnant women: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Conclusion: In summary, increasing resistance rate in UTI related agents is a risk factor that endangers both mother and fetus. Health care providers should consider screening as the radical part of infection control strategies. Due to low resistance rate to Nitrofurantoin, this drug can be a good choice for UTI treatment in pregnancies, but it should use with caution. PMID: 32321329 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
