Abstract

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common health problems among pregnant women and the reason for morbidity during pregnancy in worldwide, most of them in developing countries. The causative agents include Escherichia coli, Klebsiella species, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococci, Proteusmirabilis, Enterococcus species, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterobacter species, streptococci, and Citrobacter species. Risk factors in pregnant women is more in urinary tract infection (UTI). This current research aimed that which drug is resistance for pathogenic bacteria and their resistance gene patterns in pregnant women. The altogether predominance of urinary tract infections in pregnant women is approximately 13-18% overall. Gram-positive and gram-negative both bacteria were isolated. Which shows gram-negative bacteria (85%) and gram-positive bacteria were only 15%. E. coliis the most predominant bacteria among the study. And the antimicrobial susceptibility patters of these isolates showed high resistance towards nitrofurantoin, ciprofloxacin, and gentamycin. More sensitive towards amoxiclav, cefuroxime, etc., Pregnant women with Asymptomatic UTI consider E. coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, Proteus mirabilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter baumannii, Staphylococcus arlettae, Enterococcus faecalis and showed resistance to most drugs. The frequent appearance of isolates from urine sample along with their resistance capability tests. The antibiotics can be prescribed based on side effect to prevent pregnant women in case of empirical treatment. In order to overcome the problem of UTI in pregnant women many researches are going on, currently, the drug resistant of UTI is leading to the new technologies and identification method of drug-resistant UTI helps to overcome the infection.
