where the symptoms are not observed in the patient whereas symptomatic
bacteriuria is a condition where the symptoms of infection are observed in the
patient. Studies have substantiated an
enumeration of 103cfu/ml of
sample to be appropriate for the diagnosis of group B streptococcus (GBS)
urinary tract infection (Tan, Ulett, Steele, Benjamin & Ulett, 2012). The
researchers also feel that the diagnosis of urinary tract infection among
asymptomatic patients should be supported by positive cultures for uropathogens
to confirm the presence of the infection (Emilie & Edward, 2011). Attempts
have been made to demonstrate tha occurrence of asymptomatic symptomatic UTI as
a consequence of bacteriuria which is the presence of bacteria in urine (Ipe,
Sundac, Benjamin, Moore & Ulet, 2013). Despite the fact, that symptomatic
bacteriuria is common among pregnant women and leads to various complications,
asymptomatic bacteriuria could also lead to assorted complications.
