I-Staphylococci amabhaktheriya e-Gram-positive cocci, avame ukutholakala kubantu abanempilo, ngokuvamile olwelweni lwekhala. Amagciwane angakwazi ukuhlanganisa ezinye izindawo, ngezandla, futhi ikakhulukazi izingxenye ezimanzi zomzimba njengamakhwapha noma isitho sangasese.

Phakathi kwezinhlobo ezingamashumi amane ze-staphylococci ekhona, i-Staphylococcus aureus (I-staphylococcus aureus) ivame ukutholakala kuma-pathologies athathelwanayo. Lesi sifo singadala izifo ezimbi kakhulu.

Ngaphezu kwalokho, ingenye yezimbangela eziyinhloko zokutheleleka kwe-nosocomial, okungukuthi, inkontileka endaweni yesibhedlela, kanye nokudla okunobuthi.

I-Staphylococci iyimbangela yezimo zesikhumba, ezivame ukulunga njenge-impetigo.

Kodwa, i-Staphylococcus aureus ingaholela ezifweni ezimbi kakhulu njengezinye izinhlobo ze-pneumonia kanye ne-bacterial meningitis. Lolu hlobo lwebhaktheriya luphinde lube ngesinye sezimbangela eziyinhloko zokungenwa ushevu ekudleni okuhlobene nezimo ze-gastroenteritis.

Lapho i-Staphylococcus aureus ikhula egazini, ingahlala emalungeni, emathanjeni, emaphashini, noma enhliziyweni. Isifo singaba sibi kakhulu futhi kwesinye isikhathi sibulale.

Ukuvama

Cishe u-30% wabantu abaphile kahle bane-Staphylococcus aureus unomphela emizimbeni yabo, u-50% ngezikhathi ezithile futhi u-20% akalokothi aphathe leli gciwane. I-Staphylococci nayo itholakala ezilwaneni, emhlabeni, emoyeni, ekudleni noma ezintweni zansuku zonke.

transmission

Amagciwane afana ne-staph asatshalaliswa ngezindlela eziningi:

• Kusukela komunye umuntu kuya komunye. Izifo zesikhumba ziyathathelwana uma isilonda sesikhumba si-purulent (= ubukhona bobovu).
• Kusuka ezintweni ezingcolile. Izinto ezithile zingadlulisela amagciwane afana namakesi omcamelo, amathawula, njll. Njengoba i-staphylococci imelana ngokuqhathaniswa, ingaphila izinsuku ezimbalwa ngaphandle komzimba, ngisho nasezindaweni ezomile kakhulu futhi emazingeni okushisa aphezulu.
• Lapho udla ubuthi. Izifo ezitholakala ekudleni zitholakala ngokudla ukudla lapho i-staphylococci yande futhi yakhipha ubuthi. Ukungena kwe-toxin okuholela ekukhuleni kwesifo.

Izinkinga

• I-Sepsis. Lapho amagciwane anda engxenyeni ethile yomzimba, esikhumbeni noma kulwelwesi lwamafinyila, angadlulela egazini futhi andise lapho, okuholela ekuthelelekeni okujwayelekile okubizwa ngokuthi i-sepsis. Lokhu kutheleleka kungaholela esimweni esibi kakhulu sokushaqeka okubizwa ngokuthi yi-septic shock, okungaba yingozi empilweni.
• Izikhungo zesibili ze-streptococcal. I-Sepsis ingabangela amabhaktheriya ukuthi athuthele ezindaweni eziningana emzimbeni futhi abangele i-foci yokutheleleka emathanjeni, amalunga, izinso, ubuchopho noma ama-valve enhliziyo.
• Ukushaqeka okunobuthi. Ukuphindaphindeka kwe-staphylococci kuholela ekukhiqizeni ubuthi be-staphylococcal. Lobu buthi, lapho bungena ngobuningi babo egazini, bungabangela ukushaqeka okunobuthi, ngezinye izikhathi kubulale. Yilokhu kushaqeka (i-toxic shock syndrome noma i-TSS) okuxoxwa ngayo emapheshaneni abasebenzisi bamathampu ngesikhathi sokuya esikhathini.
