Detection and Susceptibility to Antibiotics of Mycoplasma in Genitourinary Tract / 中华医院感染学杂志

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To investigate the infection status and antibiotic susceptibility of Mycoplasma in our area,so as to instruct the rational use of antibiotics.METHODS Genitourinary secretions were collected with swabs.They were cultured with the diagnostic kit of Mycoplasma(Biomerieux Company).Meanwhile the susceptibility of Mycoplasma against 9 antimicrobial agents was tested with the same kit.According to the instrnction of the kit,the results were read.The data were statistically analyzed.RESULTS A total of 382 samples were collected,and the positive rate was 44.8%.which were composed by Uu 69.6%,Mh2.9%,and Uu+Mh infection 8.8% and low titer Uu+Mh infection 18.7%.The result of drug sensitivity showed that sensitivity of Mycoplasma to pristinamycin PRI,86.5% was the highest,then was to JOS(84.8%)and CIP(26.3%).CONCLUSIONS Ureaplasma urealyticum is the major cause of infection in genitourinary system.It shows serious resistance to commonly used antibiotics.Sensitive antibiotics should be selected based on the results of bacterial culture and drug sensitivity tests so as to raise the clinical curative effects.
