Bacteriuria was screened among 28,202 healthy school children, 14,575 boys and 13,627 girls, by dipstick and dipslide methods and also by pour plate culture. The prevalence of bacteriuria was 0.06% in boys and 0.52% in girls after the third screening. A high rate of false negative results with the dipstick test and a high rate of false positive results with the dipslide culture method using Microstix-3 were observed. About 60% of screened children continued to have bacteriuria persistently for 9 months after the third screening, which was followed by monthly urine cultures. Anomalies of the urinary tract were detected in 9 of 26 children with persistent bacteriuria.
