RESUMEN

To screen women with vaginal discharge for Trichomonas vaginalis as well as other pathogens and to follow them up. Outpatient Gynaecologic Clinic, Family Planning Clinic, and Antenatal Clinic at Al-Batool Teaching Hospital for Gynaecology and Obstetrics. 440 women with vaginal discharge [July 1997 to June 1999]. Full medical, gynaecologica, sexual and social history was recorded. Clinical examination was carried out. Laboratory investigations including vaginal, cervical and urethral swabs for direct examination, gram-stained smear, as well as culture on appropriate media. The total number of Trichomonas vaginalis infection was 68 [15.5 percent]. The isolated microorganisms in association with Trichomonas vaginalis were Candida albicans in 19 wmoen [27.9 percent]. Staphylococcus epidemidis in 10 women [14.7 percent], and Lactobacilli in six women constituting [8.8 percent]. Both Diphtheroids and Neisseria gonorrheae showed lower incidences, as only eight women were positive [5.9 percent] for each Escherichia. Coli was present in one patient [1.5 percent] 24 patients were positive for Trichomonas vaginalis only [35.3 percent]. The remaining 372 women who were negative for Trichomonas vaginalis showed a high rate of infection with Candida species [21.5 percent], followed by Staphylococcus epidermidis [18.3 percent] and lactobacilli [15.3 percent]. Other isolates included Streptococcus species [8.6 percent]., E. coli [5.9 percent], Klebsiella [3.8 percent], Enterococcus fecalis [3.0 percent], Gardnerella vaginalis [2.6 percent], Neisseria gonorrheae [2.4 percent], Proteus [2.2 percent], Diphtheroid [1.9 percent], Staphylococcus aureus [1.3 percent] and Pseudomonas aeruginosa [0.8 percent]. Moreover, 46 [10.5 percent] of women showed no growth. 50.0 percent of infection with Trichomonas vaginalis was at age 26-35 years. Considering marital status, the highest rate [76.4 percent] of infection was among married women followed by divorced [14.7 percent], windows [5.8 percent] and singles [2.9 percent]. Pregnant women positive for Trichomonas vaginalis represented [45.6 percent] of cases. 61.7 percent of infection was among illiterate women. Metronidazole [flagyl] was given to all in a dose of 250mg orally thrice daily for seven days. Metronidazole was prescribed at the same time to husbands of infected women. Other specific medications [antifungal, antimicrobial agents] were given when indicated either alone or in combination with metronidazole. Two weeks later only 112 women came for reassessment clinical and by repeating direct smear and culture, that showed fifteen positive cases. Five of them still having Trichomonas vaginalis, eight were having Candiada albicans, and two showed normal smears. Further courses of treatment were given as indicated. Vaginal discharge is common among women in reproductive life. Culture is indicated for precise diagnosis

RESUMEN

A bacteriological study of 100 appendicectomies was reported. In 70 cases the appendices were acutely inflamed, 10 perforated and 20 were normal. Bacteria were isolated from 90 [90%] cases and no growth was obtained in the remaining 10 [10%]. The predominant microorganism isolated was-Escherichia coli [49 out of 120 isolates]. Other aerobic and anaerobic bacteria were also encountered. Antibacterial sensitivity test was performed for most of the isolates. Gentamicin was found to be the drug of choice [76.4%], followed by rifampicin [71.0%], clindamycin [63.7%], and polymyxine B [61.8%]

RESUMEN

Proteus mirabilis infections isolated from 50 urinary tract, 42 wound, 32 otitis media and 26 osteomyelitis were subjected to this study. All the isolates were investigated for their in vitro sensitivity to amikacin ampicillin, carbenicillin, cephalothin, chloramphenicol, gentamicin, kanamycin, nalidixic acid, nitrofurantoin, polymyxine B, streptomycin, tetracycline and tobramycin. The majority of the strains were sensitive to amikacin [75.3%] followed by tobramycin [68.0%] and gentamicin [66.0%], and the least effective drug was tetracycline [15.3%]

RESUMEN

150 cases of variable infections with Pseudomonas aeruginosa comprising 43 wound infections, 42 urinary tract infections, 35 osteomyelitis and 30 otitis media were selected for this study. All the isolates were tested for their in vitro sensitivity to amikacin, ampicillin, carbenicillin, cephalothin, chloramphenicol, gentamicin, kanamycin, nalidixic acid, nitrofurantoin, polymyxine B, streptomycin, tetracycline and tobramycin. The majority of isolates were found to be sensitive to amikacin [81.3%] followed by polymyxine B [77.3%], tobramycin [76.0%] andgentamicin [73.3%]
