You need to repeat her morning urine sample. It should be midstream and the wife should not touch the container with genitalia to avoid contamination. If same report result appear, then she need to connect online for antibiotic.

Don’t worry sometimes contaminated urine sample also shows a similar report.
Collection of urine sample should be done properly.
Midstream urine should be given
You may repeat the test again tomorrow with a fresh sample
Also because pus cells are more- get urine culture and sensitivity test done
As asymptomatic bacteruria is common in pregnancy.
