[Role of microbiological control in the choice of antibacterial therapy of respiratory infection in surgical patients during the postoperative period].
The paper presents data on observation of 416 surgical patients subjected to investigation of sputum and washings from the tracheobronchial tree for estimating the role of clinico-microbiological study of respiratory tract excretions from surgical patients in choice of adequate therapy. On the basis of the obtained data and results of clinical observations a scheme of clinico-microbiological criteria was developed which would be of help for clinicians and microbiologists in difficult differential diagnosis of colonization and infection. The scheme will provide clinical microbiologists with possibility of correct interpretation of the results of studying respiratory tract excretions and presenting information containing preliminary positive or negative indications as to the presence of infection and recommendations for continuation or discontinuation of further clinico-microbiological investigations.
