Çocukluk çağı pnömonilerinde Mycoplazma pneumoniae'nin rolü
Mycoplasma Pneumoniae okul çağı çocukları ve genç erişkinlerin solunum, yolu enfeksiyonlarında primer etkendir Minik olarak önemli hastalıklar 3-4 yaş altı çocuklarda enderken ,peak insidans 5-15 yaş arasında oluşmaktadır.My coplasmanın neden olduğu hastalıklar genellikle hafif seyirli olup hospitalizasyon seyrektir. Çocukluk çağında Mycoplasma Pneumoniae pnömonisinin insidansını belirlemek amacıyla pnömoni tanısı almış 246 çocuk-ta Latex Aglütinasyon yöntemiyle Mycoplasma IgM Antikor'u bakıldı.5-15 yaş arası ayaktan tedavi edilen grupta, hospitalize edilerek tedavi edilenlere göre Mycoplasma IgM (+)'lik oranı anlamlı yüksek bulun-du. 5 yaşından küçük çocuklarda Mycoplasma Pneumoniae pnömonisi tespit edilmedi.
The role of Mycoplasma pneumoniae in childhood pneumoniaes
The role of mycoplasma pneumoniae in childhood pneumoniaes Mycoplasma Pneumoniae is a major cause of respira-tory infection in school -aged children and young adults.Clinically significant disease is unusual before the age of 3 to 4 y ear,the peak incidence occurs from 5 tol5 years. Mycoplasma illnesses are mild and hospitalisation is infrequent. In order to evaluate the incidence of Mycoplasma Pneumoniae pneumonia in children we evaluated the Mycoplasma IgM antibody in 246 pédiatrie patient diagnosed pneumonia by the method of Latex Aglutination.We found the positiv eness of Mycoplasma IgM anyibodies in the hospitalized children aged 5 to 15 years less than the ones who are not hospital-ized.We didn't find Mycoplasma Pneumoniae pneumo-nia in the children who are youn gerthan 5 years.
