conclusion determination of colonized bacteria in oropharynx of healthy children and relationship between them can be helpful to find the ways to interfere with their colonization and prevention of diseases due to them. materials and methods the colonized bacteria in oropharynx of 296 children between 2-6 years old from 7 day care centers of tehran were isolated and determined by specific diagn...

Objective Conjunctivitis is a common disease in neonates. Several bacterial and viral infectious agents may cause it. Tear circulation and blinking has protective effects from bacterial colonization in the conjuntival sac. Reduced blinking increases the possibility of bacterial conjunctivitis. We studied the effect of eye patches on bacterial colonization of the conjunctival sac.  Methods In 1...

Background Bacterial colonization during and shortly after birth are common in newborn infants. The aim of this study was to determine the umbilical cord bacterial colonization in newborn infants rooming in with mothers and neonates admitted to neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Materials and Methods In a cross-sectional study, 180 newborn infants were studied in three groups including: newbo...

abstract background: nosocomial pneumonia is the most common type of infection in intensive care units. this study aimed to compare the efficacy of chlorhexidine mouthwash 0.2%, 1% sodium bicarbonate and normal saline 0.9% on bacterial colonization of endotracheal tube cuff and the incidence of pneumonia in patients undergoing open heart surgery. methods: in this clinical trial study, 165 patie...

BACKGROUND Recent researches revealed that asymptomatic bacterial colonization on PMs might be ubiquitous and increase the risk of clinical PM infection. Early diagnosis of patients with asymptomatic bacterial colonization could provide opportunity for targeted preventive measures. OBJECTIVE The present study explores the incidence of bacterial colonization of generator pockets in pacemaker r...

one of the most importanat traits of fluorescent pseudomonads, a phenomenon also related to their biocontrol, is the ability to develop phase variation during their rhizosphere colonization. for an investigation of this phenomenon, at first 24 bacterial strains of pseudomonas fluorescens that were able to cause an inhibiting zone within the range of 3-14.67 mm. against gaeumannomyces graminis v...

Background: Antiseptic scrub and paint can reduce bacterial colonization and postoperative wound infection. Two forms of antiseptics, povidone iodine and chlorhexidine, are commonly used in the operating theater. Objective: To study the efficacy of the reduction of bacterial colonization and surgical wound infection among these antiseptic. Material and Method: Five hundred surgical patients wer...

To get rid of problematic reports of H. pylori colonization, clinicians’ optimal goal should be to totally bacterial elimination from clinical and environmental samples.
