Abstract
Objective To understand the mycoplasma infection and drug resistance conditions of patients with nongonococcal urethritis(NGU) and the mycoplasma infection and drug resistance status in urinary and reproductive tracts in order to guide clinical medication.Methods The ureaplasma urealyticum and mycoplasma hominis culture,identification and drug susceptibility kit produced by Zhuhai Lizhu Reagents Co.,Ltd.were used for mycoplasma identification and drug susceptibility.Results Of the 653 specimens,279 cases were mycoplasma-positive,with the detection rate of 42.7%.Ureaplasma urealyticum(Uu) infection was found in 220 cases and mycoplasma hominis infection was found in 59 cases(Mh),with Uu accounting for 78.5% of the positive samples.Mycoplasma infection mainly occurred in young and middle-aged people(21-40 years old),accounting for 92.1% of the positive samples.Mycoplasma was mainly sensitive to doxycycline,clarithromycin and josamycin and its resistance rate for ofloxacin was the highest 49.5%.Conclusion Uu is the main pathogen of local NGU infection and therefore mycoplasma infection and its drug resistance should be emphasized for the purpose of rational drug use.
