Title
Interventions for covert bacteriuria in children
Subject
Children
Covert bacteriuria
Antibiotics
Treatment
Source
Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews 2012, Issue 2.

Abstract
The authors of this review concluded that the included studies in this review do not provide sufficient detail about the harms and benefits of treating covert bacteriuria to enable formation of reliable conclusions. It appears that antibiotic treatment for covert bacteriuria is unlikely to benefit children in the long term.
