[Microbiology of open surgical wounds after delivery--episiotomy and cesarean section]

Abstract

The aim of the study is to assess the microbe find in the secretion of the open surgical wounds of the Cesarean Section and the perineal wounds. 81 young mothers have been examined--57 with open perineal wounds on 5th day after the delivery and 24 with open surgical wounds of Cesarean Section on the 7th day after the operation.

Results: The west frequent microbe find in the open perineal wounds is Streptococcus group "D" (enterococcus sp.)--53% of the cases and E. coli--26% of the cases. The most frequent microbe find in the open surgical wounds in the Cesarean Section is Enterococcus sp.--42% of the cases and St. aureus--21% of the cases. Considering the effectiveness of Penicillins (Ampicillin, Augmentin, Azlocillin, Karbencillin)--94%-99% against Enterococcus spp. and of Gentamycin against E. coli and St. aureus--90%-95% their application is recommended if is necessary.
