Abstract

Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) are the commonest microorganisms in blood cultures, and differentiation of CNS sepsis from contamination is a persistent problem. In this prospective study, 100 strains of CNS isolated from the hemocultures of 100 patients were evaluated in this respect, and the role of bacterial slime in the pathogenesis was investigated. Slime positive strains were significantly more common among the sepsis strains than among clinically insignificant isolates (p

Özet

Koagülaz-negatif stafilokoklar (KNS), kan kültürlerinden en sık izole edilen mikroorganizmalardır. Koagülaz-negatif stafilokok sepsisli hastaları, kültür kontaminasyonundan ayırmak önemli bir sorundur. Bu çalışmada, kan kültürlerinde KNS izole edilen 100 hastadan elde edilen 100 susun sepsis etkeni olma oranı ve "slime" yapımının rolü araştırılmıştır. Sepsis suşlarında "slime" oluşturma sıklığı, klinik önemi olmayan suşlardan önemli oranda daha yüksek bulunmuştur. Klinik bulgular ve "slime" pozitifliğinin KNS sepsislerinin kontaminasyondan ayırımında önemli olduğu saptanmıştır.
