bacteriuria
In medicine, bacteriuria denotes the presence of bacteria in urine (but not if the bacteria's presence is due to contamination from urine sample collection.)
==Overview==
Bacteria in the urine, especially gram-negative rods, usually indicate a urinary tract infection (either cystitis or pyelonephritis), although bacteriuria can also occur in prostatitis. Escherichia coli is the most common bacterium isolated from urine samples.
Asymptomatic bacteriuria is bacteriuria without accompanying symptoms of a urinary tract infection (such as frequent urination, painful urination or fever). It is more common in women, in the elderly, in residents of long-term care facilities, and in patients with diabetes, bladder catheters and spinal cord injuries. Patients with a long-term Foley catheter uniformly show bacteriuria.
Chronic asymptomatic bacteriuria without Urinary tract infection symptoms is prevalent in as high as 50% of the population in long-term care.
