Official Title: Effect of Systematic Search and Antimicrobial Treatment of Asymptomatic Bacteriuria in Kidney Transplant Recipients in the Incidence of Acute Pyelonephritis: a Pragmatic P

Brief Summary: Antimicrobial treatment of asymptomatic bacteriuria (AB) in kidney transplant recipients (KTR) is controversial. The investigators performed a comparative, parallel-group, randomized, open-label study to assess, in a real clinical setting, the feasibility of and benefit derived from systematic search and antimicrobial treatment of all episodes of AB.
