To determine whether urinary tract infection in pregnant women is a risk factor for low birth weight in term newborns. Material and methods: A retrospective, case-control, observational study of 255 term newborns was conducted at Hospital Belen de Trujillo, between January 2017 and July 2020. The population consisted of 85 live newborns with low birth weight (cases) and 170 live newborns without low birth weight (controls) in whom the presence or absence of maternal urinary tract infection was determined. Frequency, odds ratio (OR) and statistical significance (p<0.05) were applied. Results: Urinary tract infection in the pregnant woman [OR = 1.9, 95% CI (1.14 - 3.32), p=0.01], primiparity [OR = 2.11, 95% CI (1.24 - 3.61), p=0.006] and inadequate prenatal controls [OR = 2.24, 95% CI (1.27 - 3.93), p=0.005] were found to be risk factors for low birth weight in term newborns. Maternal age, insufficient weight gain during gestation, occupation, origin, route of delivery, gestational anemia, short inter-gestational period, educational level, marital status, sex of the newborn, were not considered risk factors for low birth weight in term newborns because they were not statistically significant (p>0.05). Conclusion: Urinary tract infection in pregnant women is a risk factor for low birth weight in term newborns
