ABSTRACT

Background. The microbiology of modern military wounds is unique for each military conflict and for each stage of medical care.

Purpose. To study the microbial landscape in patients with peritonitis caused by gunshot wounds to the abdomen.

Materials and methods. At the stage of specialized care (level 4), a study was conducted on 34 male patients who gave their consent to participate in the study. The study included patients with confirmed gunshot wounds to the abdomen, operated on at the stage of qualified medical care, with laparostoma. During sanitation relaparotomies, bacteriological studies of abdominal exudate were performed.

Results. The majority of the victims (58.8%) were transported to the qualified assistance and operated on within a few hours after the injury. At the stage of specialized care, 61.8% of patients were admitted within 24 hours. Due to the rapid evacuation, sanitation relaparotomies were performed within 24-48 hours of the first surgery in 76.5% of patients. With gunshot wounds, isolated wounds occur in 17.6% of the cases. Most often, abdominal injuries are combined with injuries to the limbs (50.0%), chest (26.6%), pelvis (17.6%). Damage to only one abdominal organ is 55.9%, two organs — 35.3%, three or more — 8.8%.

Conclusion. Bacteriological cultures in 20.0% of the cases of bacterial flora growth were not detected. Among the detected strains, gramnegative bacteria accounted for 23.0%, gram-positive bacteria — 53.5%, fungi — 8.6%. Monoculture was mainly distinguished (91.7%) and only 8.3% identified microbial associations. Escherichia coli is most commonly detected in patients with gunshot wounds to the abdomen (19.44%). Only 11.76% of the identified strains showed complete antibiotic resistance.
