Background. The threat of preterm birth is one of the most topical issues in the world medicine. According to the statistics, from 12-13 to 25-35 % of all pregnancies end prematurely. One of the causes of preterm labour is chronic inflammatory processes of female genital organs and disorder of microbiocenosis. Timely diagnosis and adequate treatment will reduce the risk of premature labour and avoid perinatal loss.
Objective. We examined and analysed the microflora of the skin of mammary glands and mucous membrane of vagina in healthy pregnant women and patients with threat of preterm labour.
Materials and methods. The examination of the pregnant was conducted at the TRMPC “Mother and Child” in several stages. First of all, we rinsed the skin of mammary glands and smeared from mucous membrane the posterior vault of vagina with sterile swabs pre-moistened in physiological solution. After that, the tampons were placed in sterile tubes and delivered to laboratory. Sowing was carried out on Petri dishes with sterile medium: ZHSA, bloods MPA, Endo, Saburo, thioglycolic medium.
Conclusions. As a result of the research we found saprophytic Gram-positive and Gram-negative microorganisms (in women with a physiological course of pregnancy). In pregnant women with preterm labour, there was the increase in the number of St. haemolyticus from 13% to 87%, appearance of representatives of pathogenic flora – St. aureus (in 20%).
