摘要
对肯尼亚内罗毕肯雅塔医院骨科收治的115例患者进行了横断面研究,以确定从感染伤口分离的金黄色葡萄球菌的患病率和抗生素敏感性。金黄色葡萄球菌感染率为33.0%。检测药物及其敏感性分别为阿莫西林(13.2%)、共阿莫西林(39.5%)、奥西林(55.3%)、红霉素(44.7%)、庆大霉素(60.5%)、环丙沙星(62.2%)、米诺环素(86.8%)、头孢呋辛(57.9%)、克林霉素(84.2%)。这些结果显示了金黄色葡萄球菌的敏感谱,可用于住院患者伤口治疗中选择合适的药物。关键词:流行,抗菌药物敏感性,金黄色葡萄球菌东非和中非医药科学杂志Vol. 9 (3) 2006: pp. 71-73
Prevalence and Antimicrobial Susceptibility of Staphylococcus aureus at the Kenyatta National Hospital, Nairobi
A cross sectional study of 115 patients admitted at the Department of Orthopedics, Kenyatta Hospital, Nairobi, Kenya was carried out to determine the prevalence and antibiotic susceptibility of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from infected wounds. The prevalence of Staphylococcus aureus was 33.0 %. The drugs tested and their corresponding sensitivity were amoxycillin (13.2 %), co-amoxiclav (39.5 %), oxacillin (55.3 %), erythromycin (44.7 %), gentamicin (60.5 %), ciprofloxacin (62.2 %) minocycline (86.8 %), cefuroxime (57.9 %) and clindamycin (84.2 %). These results show the sensitivity profile of Staphylococcus aureus and can be used to choose suitable drugs in the management of wounds for hospitalized patients.
