This study characterized the incidence, associated clinical factors, timing of infection, microbiology, and incidence of concordant blood culture of urinary tract infections (UTIs) in very low birth weight (VLBW <1,500g) infants. UTI is a common cause of infection in VLBW infants, especially among the smallest, most premature, male infants, and those with a longer duration of hospitalization. Neonatal clinicians should consider obtaining urine culture in the setting of late-onset sepsis evaluations in VLBW infants.
