ABSTRACT
@#AIM: To investigate the effect of long-term application of prostaglandin analogue eye drops on conjunctival flora in glaucoma patients.<p>METHODS: Totally 69 patients(113 eyes)with glaucoma treated with latanoprostaglandin from June 2016 to June 2017 were selected, and the sensitivity of conjunctival flora and staphylococcus epidermidis to antibiotics was examined after admission, 3mo and 1a.<p>RESULTS: The number of bacterial eyes detected at admission, 3mo and 1a were 63, 66 and 67 respectively(χ<sup>2</sup>=2.496, <i>P</i>=0.287). There was no difference in the detection rates of staphylococcus epidermidis, streptococcus, staphylococcus aureus, staphylococcus hominis, staphylococcus hemolyticus and moraxella at the time of admission, 3mo and 1a(<i>P</i>>0.05). The ratio of MRSE at 3mo was higher than that at entry(χ<sup>2</sup>=3.063, <i>P</i>=0.062). The ratio of MRSE at 1a was higher than that at 3mo(χ<sup>2</sup>=38.945, 24.984, all <i>P</i><0.001). The susceptibility of staphylococcus epidermidis to levofloxacin, gatifloxacin, moxifloxacin, ceftazidime, tobramycin, cefmethime and erythromycin at 3mo was lower than that at the time of admission, but there was no difference(<i>P</i>>0.0167), while the susceptibility of staphylococcus epidermidis to chloramphenicol at 3mo was lower than that at entry(<i>P</i><0.0167). The sensitivity of staphylococcus epidermidis to levofloxacin, gatifloxacin, moxifloxacin, ceftazidime, cefmethime, tobramycin, chloramphenicol and erythromycin at 1a was lower than that at 3mo(<i>P</i><0.0167).<p>CONCLUSION: The long-term application of latanoprostaglandin will not affect the detection rate of conjunctival flora, but can increase the incidence of MRSE. Clinically, patients who need long-term application of latanoprostaglandin should be considered comprehensively to prevent the emergence of drug-resistant strains in order to prevent uncontrollable infection.
