Abstract

Amaç: Vajinitler, kadınlarda yaygın olarak görülen ve hastaneye gitme sıklığını arttıran önemli bir halk sağlığı sorunudur. Biz de bu çalışmada, 3 yıllık periyotta, İstanbul’da bir özel hastanenin kadın doğum bölümüne başvuran erişkin hastalarda vajinal sürüntü örneklerinden vajinal enfeksiyon etkeni olarak saptanan patojenleri retrospektif olarak ortaya koymayı amaçladık.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: 2016-2018 yılları arasında İstanbul’da bir özel hastanenin kadın hastalıkları ve doğum polikliniklerine başvuran, vajinit şüphesi olan, erişkin, hamile olmayan hastalardan vajinal sürüntü örnekleri alındı. Numuneler hızlıca laboratuvara ulaştırıldı ve klasik kültür yöntemleri kullanılarak tespit edilen etkenler incelendi.
Bulgular: Üç yıllık süreçte hastaneye başvuran 314 hastada saptanan etkenler incelendiğinde, 28’inde (%8.92) C. albicans, 13’ünde (%5.73) aerobik vajinit etkenleri ve beşinde (%1.59) bakteriyel vajinoz etkenleri saptandı. C. albicans %8.92 ile etkenler arasında en yüksek oranda saptanırken, bunu E. coli’nin (%2.23) takip ettiği görüldü.
Sonuç: Çalışmamızda gerçekleştirdiğimiz retrospektif analizle, hastanemizde C. albicans’a bağlı vajinitlerle daha sık karşılaştığımız saptanmıştır. Vajinitlere neden olan etkenlerin bölgeden bölgeye farklılaşabilmesi ve hangi etkenlerle karşılaşılabileceğine dair bir perspektif sunması açısından epidemiyolojik verilerin takip edilmesi gerektiği kanaatindeyiz.

A THREE-YEAR RETROSPECTIVE ANALYSIS OF VAGINITIS AGENTS IN PATIENTS ADMITTED TO A PRIVATE HOSPITAL

Year 2022, Volume: 24 Issue: 1, 183 - 186, 30.04.2022

Abstract

Objective: In this study, we aimed to present the pathogens detected as vaginal infection agents isolated from vaginal swab samples in adult patients admitted to the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics of a private hospital in Istanbul for three years retrospectively.
Material and Methods: Vaginal swabs of adult non-pregnant patients admitted to Gynecology and Obstetrics outpatient clinics of a private hospital in Istanbul between 2016-2018 were included in this study. The samples were transferred quickly to the laboratory after sampling, and the infectious agents were identified with conventional bacterial culture methods.
Results: Identification results of 314 vaginal swab samples revealed that 28 (8.92%) had C. albicans, 13 (5.73%) had pathogens that cause aerobic vaginitis, and five (1.59%) had bacterial vaginosis agents. C. albicans was the highest among agents with a frequency of 8.92%, followed by E. coli (2.23%).
Conclusion: Our retrospective analysis revealed that C. albicans is the most frequent pathogen causing vaginitis in our hospital. As the pathogens causing vaginitis vary from region to region, we believe that monitorization of the epidemiological data is important.
