[Significance of epidemiologic, microbiological and immunologic indices for establishing the staphylococcal etiology of diseases].
In this study the importance of epidemiological, microbiological and epidemiological characteristics for the determination of the staphylococcal etiology of the most widespread diseases was determined. Microbiological study was found to be of leading importance for the confirmation of the staphylococcal etiology of diseases with the closed focus of infection. In such diseases 80% of cases were found to be caused by staphylococcal infection. In diseases with the open focus of infection the etiological diagnosis was based on the data of epidemiological history, the results of bacteriological studies in their dynamics. Immunological studies were of auxiliary significance. Staphylococcal etiology was confirmed in 59-72.4% of cases. Staphylococci were found to cause 12.8% of cases of intestinal diseases in little children. The etiology of the diseases was confirmed by the data of epidemiological history, and the results of bacteriological and immunological studies.
