ABSTRACT
Objective: This study aims
to understand the distribution of pathogenic bacteria in the region of HIV/AIDS
patients with opportunistic infection. Methods: To count the number of the
bacterial culture of HIV/AIDS patients in our hospital from October 2011 to
December 2014, and observe the distribution of all kinds of pathogenic
bacteria. Results: From the 4269 cases of HIV/AIDS patients’ bacteria, 5045 cases
were cultured whose main flora distribution wasCandida albicans, 1759
cases. The second one was penicillium, 982 cases. The third one was
mycobacteria, 557 cases. And then there are 213 cases ofCryptococcus
neoformans, 212 cases of Klebsiella
pneumonia, 209 cases of E.
coli, 157 cases of coagulase-negative staphylococci, 112 cases of Candida tropicalis, 90 cases of
glabrata, 81 cases of Staphylococcus
aureus, 75 cases of Pseudomonas
aeruginosa, 60 cases of Salmonella, 48 cases of Acinetobacter and the
distribution of the rest of cultured bacterial was less than 40 cases.
Conclusion: There are many kinds of types of Pathogenic bacteria in HIV/AIDS
patients with the opportunity to infectious. And the majorities are Candida albicans, Penicillium marneffei, Penicillium, Mycobacterium, Cryptococcus neoformans and so on. The infection sites are
widely distributed; respiratory and circulatory are the main infected system.
Improving the detection rate and reducing the contamination rate can truly
reflect the distribution of pathogenic bacteria, and the distribution can guide
the infection work in hospital. At the same time, it’s good to predict and
prevent opportunistic infection. Thus, the patients can get immediate
treatment.
