MICROFLORA IN CONJUNCTIVITIS AND DACRYOCYSTITES IN NEWBORNS AND ITS SENSITIVITY TO ANTIBACTERIAL DRUGS
Bobrova N. F., Molodaya A. L.
Odessa, Ukraine
There was made the analysis of 98 investigations of microflora of the conjunctival cavity in children of 1 month old in conjunctivitis and dacryocystitis for 2010 and 9 months of 2011.
It is established that the most frequent causative agent (40.8 %) cultured in these diseases is Staphylococcus epidermidis. Association of different microorganisms was observed quite frequently — 32.6 % of cases, among which the most common was combination of Staphylococcus epidermidis with other microorganisms (87.5 %). It is shown that microflora is a constant component in this pathology (only in 1 % of cases microorganisms were not isolated).
The analysis of sensitivity of microflora cultured in conjunctivitis and dacryocystites to antibacterial drugs showed the highest (100 %) sensitivity of the most common microflora (Staphylococcus epidermidis and Staphylococcus aureus) to Vigamox (moxifloxacin), however, its frequent application resulted in reduction of Staphylococcus aureus sensitivity to 85.7 % in 2011. Rather high sensitivity of the isolated microflora remained to gentamycin for the period analyzed.
