Abstract

Introduction: Urinary tract infections (UTI) are determinants of the evolution of obstetric and perinatal complications in pregnant women, as well as neonatal complications in the newborn.

Objective: To identify obstetric and perinatal complications that occur in pregnancy with and without urinary tract infection and their level of risk for serious complications.

Methods: Observational, analytical and retrospective study of 100 records, with two comparison groups. A group with UTI of 34 patients and another group without UTI of 66 patients, the dependent variables to be studied were the consequences of UTI in pregnancy, weight of the newborn, Apgar at one minute and at five minutes.

Results: The percentage of records that recorded UTI was 34%. The average age in the control group was 18 years, in the case group it was 15 years.

Conclusions. Complications recorded in the case group were: abortions, premature births, low birth weight, lower Apgar scores at 1 minute and 5 minutes
