Abstract

The in-hospital infections are one of the most serious problems of medicine, especially if patients have a background immunosuppression of various genesis conditioned by both disease itself and corresponding therapy. The detection of presence of infection and identification of agent and detection of its resistance are needed for choosing adequate therapy. At that, high heterogeneity of strains and multiple resistance of nosocomial infections to antibiotics and antimicrobial pharmaceuticals and standardization of antibacterial prevention and number of other causes becomes an obstacle for both determination of medicinal sensitivity of bacterium and for identification of pathogen itself in patient. One of the most complicated in antibacterial therapy pathogens causing pyo-septic diseases, are bacteria Stenotrophomonas spp., the only significant species out of them - Stenotrophomonas maltophilia has primary multiple antibiotic resistance. The significance of early identification of S.maltophilia is obvious. The application of MALDI-ToF mass-spectrometry requires shortage of of time of species identification of primary bacterial culture up to 1-2 hours including sampling preparation and analysis of obtained specters. The sequencing of 16S rRNA requires shortage of of total time od species identification of pathogen from clinical sample (blood) up to 1-12 hours, including sampling preparation ans comparison with successions presented in international data base. The given technique permits to exclude out of analysis prolonged period of obtaining a pure hemoculture of agent. The application of sequencing of 16S rRNA and MALDI-ToF mass-spectrometry as an alternative high-precision techniques shorten time of identification of bacteria, including detection of agent directly in blood of patient. Hence, occurs optimization of complex treatment and shortage of time of selection of adequate therapy that is especially important in case of oncological patients because sensitivity of cultural methods can be diminished due to preventive antibiotics' therapy.
