Staphylococcus aureus during pregnancy, in a smear, what is dangerous
Staphylococcus aureus during pregnancy is dangerous for both the expectant mother and the developing fetus. It can cause serious illness for a pregnant woman and fetal death.
What is the danger of staphylococcus aureus during pregnancy?
Staphylococci are opportunistic bacteria that constantly surround a person and do no harm until a certain point. During the period of gestation, a woman’s immunity decreases, which leads to an increase in the number of these bacteria and the development of staphylococcal infection, which is important to cure in a timely manner.
Staphylococcus aureus during pregnancy is very dangerous for the expectant mother and fetus
There are 27 species of these bacteria in total. The most dangerous types of staphylococcus during pregnancy:
- Golden. It causes the appearance of purulent inflammatory processes, meningitis, pneumonia in the expectant mother and severe inflammation of the internal organs in the baby. It can even lead to the death of the expectant mother and child.
- Saprophytic. Leads to the development of cystitis in a woman.
- Epidermal. Causes conjunctivitis, sepsis, purulent infections of wounds.
- Hemolytic. Leads to damage to the mucous membrane of the respiratory tract and the appearance of inflammation in them.
If Staphylococcus aureus is found in a smear during pregnancy, there is a strong threat to the health of the baby. During the passage through the birth canal, he can become infected, which leads to the appearance of skin rashes, diseases of the ENT organs.
If the bacteria enters the blood of a pregnant woman, there is a risk of inflammation of the inner lining of the heart, and this can be fatal.
How to eliminate staphylococcal infection?
When a staphylococcal infection is detected, doctors usually prescribe antibiotics to the pregnant woman. They are applied not only internally, but also externally.
The methods of therapy depend on the site of the lesion of the pathogenic bacterium. If the nasopharynx and larynx are affected, treatment with chlorophyllipt and rinsing with furacilin is performed. If bacteria are found in a smear in a pregnant woman, Terzhinan is prescribed inside. In order to avoid blood poisoning, the expectant mother is immunized with staphylococcal toxoid.
While using antibiotics, it is important to take probiotics, which will protect the stomach and intestinal mucosa from the aggressive effects of antibacterial drugs.
If staphylococcus is detected in the expectant mother and the pregnancy is proceeding normally, then you should not worry. It is only necessary to start strengthening the immune system so that bacteria do not begin to multiply and lead to the development of an infection that can cause serious complications of pregnancy.
