Abstract

Objective To investigate the status of urogenital mycoplasma infection and antibiotic resistance and to guide rational drug use in Lasa area.Methods In vitro method was used to determine the infection rate and antibiotic resistance of Ureaplasma urealyticum(Uu)and mycoplasma hominis(Mh)in the 326 suspected cases.Results The clinical isolates was 158 and the mycoplasma infection rate was 48.46%,with Uu 71.52%,Mh 8.86% and mixed infection 19.62%,respectively.The Constituent ratio of Uu was prominently higher than that of Mh and mixed infection(P0.05).The antibioctic susceptibility test showed that the most sensitive antibiotics were minocin and doxycycline,following by azithromycin and josamycin.Meanwhile,roxithromycin,ofloxacin and levofloxacin showed remarkable resistance.Conclusion Basically parallel antimicrobial spectrum was shared by subtypes of mycoplasma.It seems mycoplasma hominis and mixed infection would aggravate the phenomenon of antibiotic resistance.
