Value of Sputum Cultivation in the Treatment of Respiratory Disease
Objective To study the value of sputum cultivation in the treatment of respiratory diseases and supply the experiment evidence.Methods 306 sputum samples were smeared cultivated and identified the bacteria,which were measured the sensitivity to antibiotics in common use by K-B way according to NCCLS criterion.Results 375 germs were identified in the 306 sputum samples.Among which 66.7% were Gram's stain negative bacilli,29.1% were Gram's stain positive cocci,4.2% were candida.Six kinds of leading germs were resistant to antibiotics in common use in some degrees.25 germs were bacteria with ESBLS.14 germs were MRSA.Conclusion Sputum cultivation should be regarded in the treatment of respiratory contraction.It is important to identify the disease-caused germs and know their sensitivity to antibiotics,which is the experiment evidence for using antibiotics reasonablely.
