    The prevalence of obstetric and perinatal complications caused by urinary tract infections was 23% standing out with preterm labor and low birth weight.

    The hypothesis was confirmed because we found a high prevalence and complications leading to a urinary tract infection in pregnancy.

    The result of this research shows us that these diseases must be treated urgently by implementing a protocol for prenatal care that includes at least one urine culture by trimester.
