Abstract

OBJECTIVE To investigate constituent ratio and drug resistance of Mycoplasma causing female urogenital tract infection and provide the evidence for the clinically anti-infective treatment. METHODS The Mycoplasma cultivation and drug susceptibility testing were performed in the patients with female genitourinary tract infection by BioMerieux Mycoplasma IST2 kit. RESULTS The total positive detection rate of Mycoplasma was 51.0%.The positive detection rate of Ureaplasma urealyicum(Uu),Mycoplasma hominis(Mh) and combination infection rate were 80.8%,1.7%,and 17.5%,respectively.The susceptibility testing results indicated that antibiotics with the highest resistance rates were ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin while the resistance rates to pristinamycin,doxycycline and josamycin were the lowest. CONCLUSION The infection rate of Uu is the highest in female genitourinary tract infection.We should focus on the prevention and control of it.
