Sažetak
Newborns at risk for early renal impairment were selected after a screening of 1200 neonates. We investigated intrapartal transmission of bacteria from mother to a predisposed child. Two groups of newborns were included, those with UTI and those with significant asympthomatic bacteriuria. The bacteria originated from maternal urine and stoll with equal frequency (42, 3% each). Neonatal infection was acquired by direct contact with maternal excretions and ascension in 55%, and by swallowing them in 23, 1%.
