AB OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficiency of preventive work with
HIV-infected women by the results of microscopy of vaginal discharge.
METHOD: Matte for microscopy resieved from 30 HIV-infected women with
complaints about vaginal discharge. Mean age 32. Matte were coloured by
methylene blue and by Gram. The number of leucocytes, presence of
gonococcus, trichomonas, key cells, gram positive bacteriums, gram
negative bacteriums and fungi were evaluated. Detection of chlamydiums
in vaginal discharge was conducted with the Chlamiset. As a control
group were 30 HIV-seronegative women, who anonymously apply to hospital
with the complaints on vaginal discharge. Mean age 32. RESULTS: In the
vaginal discharge of more then 70% women of both groups there was found
total leucocytosis. In the group of HIV-infected women the frequency of
the detection of rarely guantaty of gonococcus (24% and 70%
accordingly), trichomonas (40% and 80%), chlamidiums (17% and 50%). In
group of HIV-infected women and in the HIV-negative women the frequency
of the detection of key cells (45% and 12% accordingly) and fungi (70%
and 20%). There was not found any difference in detection of gram
positive bacteriums and negative bacteriums in both groups. CONCLUSION:
The lesser frequency of detection of gonococcus, trichomonas,
chlamidiums in the vaginal discharge of HIV-infected women can be
explained by effective preventive work of epidemiologists and the usage
of condoms. High frequency of detection of fungi and key cells in
vaginal discharge of HIV-infected women can be explained by the
peculiarities of the microbes, causing vaginal infections in those
patients.
