Abstract
Background: In pregnant women UTI is a major cause for complications during carrying period. It can be solved by proper antibiotic therapy, but without culture sensitivity reveals multi drug resistance strength in empirical therapy. Materials & Method: Urine samples were collected from UTI pregnant women attending at Out Patients Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology. Then samples were cultured and identified the organisms with respect to morphology and biochemical tests. Antibiotic sensitivity patterns were carried out with prescribed antibiotics disc in disc diffusion method. Result: The maximum UTI found on the age group of 30-39 years. E.coli is the most organism followed by S.aureus in this study. Ceftriaxone and Cefixime was the most susceptible antibiotic for UTI in the pregnant women.
