Finds candiduria is linked to HIV status among pregnant women, suggesting the need for tailored management.
Candida UTI was present among pregnant women in this study, with C. albicans as the predominant species. The Candida isolates exhibited high susceptibility to the antifungal agents tested. HIV-positive status was the sole predictor of candiduria. These findings highlight a need for integrated screening and management of candiduria in ANC for HIV-positive women and ongoing susceptibility surveillance to guide antifungal therapy.
