  • Title: Management of urinary tract infections in pregnancy.
    Author: Hodgman DE.
    Journal: J Perinat Neonatal Nurs; 1994 Jun; 8(1):1-11. PubMed ID: 8006801.
    Abstract:
    Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of the most frequent complications of pregnancy. When the lower UTIs of asymptomatic bacteriuria and cystitis are not eradicated, the subsequent risk of the development of pyelonephritis is increased. The associated decreased maternal morbidity and fetal prematurity are the goals of a screening and treatment program for pregnant women. This clinical article presents information on the etiology, incidence, diagnosis, and management of asymptomatic bacteriuria and cystitis. Nursing implications regarding teaching are included.
