Urinary tract infections or urinary tract infections are defined as the presence of germs that have the ability to produce affections or alterations at the morphological and functional level of the urinary system, with the female sex being the most affected by the anatomy it presents; even more so in pregnancy because during the 3 trimesters of gestation there are various anatomical, mechanical, physiological and hormonal changes that can favor the colonization of uropathogenic agents at the level of the urinary tract, reaching at least one episode of ITU occurred during this period. That is why in the present research it was proposed to identify the etiological agents in urinary tract infections of pregnant patients that went to the Motupe Health Center, the methodology used was with a quantitative approach, with non-experimental design, descriptive cross-section; a total of 203 samples were evaluated from pregnant patients whose age ranged between 16 and 43 years of age, of which 126 pregnant patients met the inclusion criteria and whose EMO examination presented characteristics and values of a possible urinary tract infection. Gram stains and subsequent sowing were performed in culture media in agar: blood, MacConkey and Methylene Blue Eosin (EMB); while it was corroborated by confirmatory biochemical test such as Citrate, Urea, SIM, Lysine and TSI, with which it was possible to determine a total of 18 bacterial growths where the most frequent etiological agents were Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae being the first the most prevalent with 94,44% followed by Klebsiella pneumoniae with 5,56%.
