Abstract

The bacteriology of water in a dental unit is important as potentially pathogenic microorganisms like Pseudomonas may be present in dental water unit, which could be fatal for immuno-compromised patients and be of significant morbidity in immuno-competent patients. It is difficult to treat infections caused by Pseudomonas due to their resistance to many commonly used disinfectants and antibiotics. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the Pseudomonas contamination in dental unit water lines of a dental hospital outpatient department and to analyse the antimicrobial susceptibility of Pseudomonas.

私立牙科诊所口腔单位水中假单胞菌的患病率及其MAR指数对抗菌药物的敏感性
牙科用水单位中的水的细菌学很重要,因为牙科用水单位可能存在假单胞菌等潜在致病微生物,这对免疫受损的患者来说可能是致命的,对免疫能力强的患者来说也会有显著的发病率。由于假单胞菌对许多常用消毒剂和抗生素具有耐药性,因此很难治疗假单胞菌引起的感染。本研究的目的是评估牙科医院门诊部牙科单元水管线中的假单胞菌污染,并分析假单胞菌的耐药性。
