背景迄今为止,尚未对越南B型流感嗜血杆菌(HiB)疾病的发病率、婴儿和儿童HiB携带率或HiB引起的细菌性脑膜炎病例比例进行研究。安全和高效的Hib疫苗的可用性使得这样的信息很重要。通过对血液、脑脊液、尿液和胸膜液进行培养和乳胶凝集,研究了胡志明市第一儿科医院就诊的患有肺炎和脑膜炎的婴儿和儿童样本的细菌病原学。对门诊患儿肺炎球菌和Hib的携带率进行了研究。经细菌培养证实的34例细菌性脑膜炎中,Hib占53%,肺炎球菌占18%。经乳胶凝集法确诊的31例脑膜炎中,Hib占39%,肺炎球菌占55%。90%的Hib脑膜炎病例发生在儿童中
Background. To date no studies on the incidence of Haemophilus influenzas type b (Hib) disease, Hib carrier rates in infants and children or the proportion of bacterial meningitis cases caused by Hib in Vietnam have been performed. The availability of safe and highly effective Hib vaccines makes such information important.Methods. The bacterial etiology of a sample of infants and children with pneumonia and meningitis seen at Pediatric Hospital No. 1 in Ho Chi Minh City was studied by culture and latex agglutination of blood, cerebrospinal fluid, urine and pleural fluid. The carriage rate of pneumococci and Hib was studied in a sample of outpatient children.Results. Hib caused 53% of 34 culture-proven bacterial meningitis cases and pneumococci caused 18%, Of 31 meningitis cases diagnosed by latex agglutination, 39% were caused by Hib and 55% by pneumococci. Ninety percent of cases of Hib meningitis occurred in children
