Molecular evidence of Ureaplasma urealyticum and Ureaplasma parvum colonization in preterm infants during respiratory distress syndrome
BACKGROUND Ureaplasma urealyticum and U. parvum have been associated with respiratory diseases in premature newborns, but their role in the pathogenesis of the respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is unclear. The aim of this study was to detect, using molecular techniques, the role of Mycoplasma spp. and Ureaplasma spp. in respiratory secretion and blood specimens of preterm newborns with or wit...
متن کاملPrevalence and antibiotic susceptibility of Ureaplasma urealyticum in Malaysian neonates with respiratory distress.
Ureaplasma urealyticum was isolated from the endotracheal aspirates of 39 (21.4%) of 182 neonates with respiratory distress requiring ventilatory support. Mycoplasma hominis was isolated from one (0.5%) neonate. Bacterial cultures were negative in 123 (67.6%) neonates. Antibiotic susceptibility test carried out on ten isolates of U. urealyticum showed that all the organisms were sensitive to er...
متن کاملHyperoxia potentiates Ureaplasma urealyticum pneumonia in newborn mice.
The effect of continuous exposure to 80% oxygen on newborn mice with Ureaplasma urealyticum pneumonia was determined. Mice were inoculated intranasally with either U. urealyticum or sterile broth and then housed in either 80% oxygen or room air (21% oxygen). The mice were sacrificed at either 7 or 14 days after inoculation. Significantly more mice in the U. urealyticum group housed in 80% O2 th...
متن کاملSerological evidence of Ureaplasma urealyticum infection in neonatal respiratory disease.
Since up to 80 percent of pregnant women and 30 percent of neonates may be colonized with genital mycoplasmas, it is difficult to determine whether true infection occurs. The antibody responses to eight serotypes of U. urealyticum were assessed in mothers and infants in 21 cases of neonatal respiratory disease (RD) and 24 normal cases. Among the normal population of mothers and infants, a titer...
متن کاملNewborn Respiratory Distress.
Newborn respiratory distress presents a diagnostic and management challenge. Newborns with respiratory distress commonly exhibit tachypnea with a respiratory rate of more than 60 respirations per minute. They may present with grunting, retractions, nasal flaring, and cyanosis. Common causes include transient tachypnea of the newborn, respiratory distress syndrome, meconium aspiration syndrome, ...
