9、;110:663)Screening for asymptomatic bacteriuria in adults has little value except for two situations:pregnancy(because of the high risk of acute pyelonephritis with its accompanying risk of fetal complications)and prior to urologic surgery(because of the risk of postoperative sepsis).nAt room temper

11、ladder puncture)nIn pyelonephritis,the“105 cfu/ml”rule breaks down;fewer colonies can be significant.Up to 20%of young women with acute uncomplicated pyelonephritis have between 103 and 104 cfu/ml.In catheterized patients in whom specimens are obtained directly from the catheter,between 102 and 104
