Antimicrobial agents suscepbility S. pneumoniae isolates gained in invasive forms of infection
Abstract
Despite of the achievements in diagnostics and treatment of pneumococcal infections, rationalized antimicrobial chemotherapy of invasive forms of pneumococcal infections (pneumonias, menigitidis, etc) is still remaining the actual problem. In Primorskyi Region there is registered quite high level of pneumococcal infections morbidity. The most often isolated strains are strains resistant to tetracycline, clindamycin, erythromycin and ciprofloxacin. Increasing of macrolide and fluoruoquinolone nonsusceptible strains in age group from 5 to 18 years determines rational prescribing of antimicrobial agents of these groups in patients of this age group with invasive forms with pneumococcal infections.
