La úlcera de córnea bacteriana o queratitis es una condición seria que puede llevar a la pérdida de la visión. La selección del tratamiento se basa en estudios microbiológicos y en el patrón de sensibilidad en un área geográfica determinada. El objetivo de este estudio fue conocer la sensibilidad y la mejor terapia empírica para el tratamiento de pacientes con queratitis bacteriana; de la Cátedra de Oftalmología del Hospital de Clínicas, y cuyas muestras fueron tomadas en el laboratorio de Microbiología del Instituto de Investigaciones en Ciencias de la Salud. Se revisaron las fichas de todos los pacientes con queratitis en cuyos cultivos se aislaron bacterias, desde julio de 2003 a diciembre de 2006. De 175 pacientes con queratitis, se encontró que 73 eran de origen bacteriano, encontrándose más de una bacteria en algunas muestras. De las 87 bacterias,; estafilococos coagulasa negativo (Scn: 27,6%) fueron predominantes, seguido de Staphylococcus aureus (Sau: 11,2%), Streptococcus pneumoniae (Spn: 10,3%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pae: 12,6%) y Acinetobacter sp Ac - 8%). El 100% de los aislados de Scn y Sau, fue sensible a ciprofloxacina y a oxacilina, 89% y 100% a gentamicina, 80% y 88% a tobramicina, respectivamente. Todos los aislados de Spn fueron sensibles a eritromicina, de igual manera todos los aislados de Pae y Ac- a ciprofloxacina y tobramicina; 73% y 100% a gentamicina, respectivamente. El 93% de los pacientes recibió tratamiento empírico de colirio antibiótico reforzado (CAR) de cefazolina 50 mg/ml y gentamicina 16mg/ml; y 7% ciprofloxacina al 0,3%. En esta serie, para las úlceras de córnea debidas a estafilococos y a bacilos gramnegativos no fermentadores, la droga de elección es la ciprofloxacina, y debida a S. pneumoniae, eritromicina. En base a los datos obtenidos se concluye que la combinación de cefazolina y ciprofloxacina es un esquema terapéutico empírico que puede ser recomendado para las queratitis bacterianas. Bacterial corneal ulcer or keratitis is a serious condition that can lead to visual loss. Treatment selection is based on microbiologic studies and in susceptibility pattern of the especific geographical area. The objective of this study was to determine the susceptibility and best empirical treatment of patients with bacterial keratitis of the Chair of Ophthalmology of the Hospital de Clinicas whose samples were collected in the Microbiology Laboratory of the Instituto de Investigaciones en Ciencias de la Salud. A retrospective review of the medical records of all culture-positive bacterial keratitis seen from July 2003 to December 2006 was performed. Out of 175 patients with keratitis 73 were found to be of bacterial ethiology. Of the 87 bacteria, coagulase-negative staphylococci (Scn: 27.6%) was predominant followed by Staphylococcus aureus (Sau: 11.2%), Streptococcus pneumoniae (Spn: 10.3%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pae: 12.6%) and Acinetobacter sp (Ac- 8%). All Scn and Sau isolates showed susceptibility to ciprofloxacin and oxacillin, 89% and 100% to gentamicin and 80% and 88% to tobramycin, respectively. All Spn isolates were susceptible to eritromicin; all Pae and Ac- isolates were susceptible to ciprofloxacin and tobramycin, 73% and 100% to gentamicin, respectively. Ninety three percent of the patients received an empirical treatment with a reinforced antibiotic eyedrops of cefazolin 50 mg/ml and gentamicine 16mg/ml; and 7% with ciprofloxacine 0.3%. In this series, for the corneal ulcer due to Staphylococcus species and non-fermenting Gram-negative rods, the drug of choice is ciprofloxacin and for S. pneumoniae is eritromicin. Based in the results of this study, it can said that cefazolin and ciprofloxacin combination is an empirical therapeutic scheme that could be recommended for bacterial keratitis.

Las queratitis infecciosas poseen una elevada morbilidad, poniendo en riesgo la visión si no son tratadas rápida y apropiadamente. El objetivo del presente estudio es evaluar las características clínicas y microbiológicas, el tratamiento implementado y la evolución clínic120. A los dos meses del post-tratamiento en pacientes con queratitis infecciosas que consultaron en el Departamento de Oftalmología del Hospital de Clínicas entre julio de 2003 a diciembre de 2006. De 167 pacientes, 74,3% eran varones; la edad media ± DE fue de 40 ±19 años. Los cultivos fueron positivos en el 71,9% de los casos; aislándose bacterias como único agente etiológico en el 43,7%; exclusivamente hongos 17,4%; hongos y bacterias 10,8%. Entre las bacterias aisladas se encontraron, estafilococo coagulasa-negativa (29%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (16%), Streptococcus pneumoniae (10,5%) y Staphylococcus aureus (8,1%) y entre los hongos Fusarium sp (57,4%). De 154 pacientes, que tenían datos sobre el tratamiento empleado, el 77,8% recibió colirio reforzado de cefazolina 50 mg/ml y gentamicina 16mg/ml; 33,5% fluconazol y 12% ciprofloxacina. Se tuvo información sobre la evolución a los dos meses en 133 pacientes, de los cuales el 82% presentó leucoma, 13,5% recubrimiento conjuntival y 4,5% evisceración. Una mala evolución estuvo asociada al origen micótico y al tamaño grande de la úlcera. La frecuencia de las queratitis infecciosas de origen micótico es alta en esta serie, y relacionada con una peor evolución. El fluconazol es el único antimicótico disponible en nuestro medio, pero su efecto es principalmente sobre hongos no filamentosos, por lo tanto se deberían incorporar nuevos esquemas de tratamiento antimicótico, como la natamicina, que podría evitar la pérdida de la visión de numerosos pacientes. Infectious keratitis cause significant morbidity and, if it is not promptly and appropriately treated, can lead to severe ocular disability. This retrospective study evaluates the clinical and microbiological characteristics of infectious keratitis, treatment and outcome at two month post-treatment in patients consulting at the Ophthalmology Department of the Teaching Hospital of the National University of Asunción from July 2003 to December 2006. Out of 167 patients, 74.3% were men; mean age ± SD was 40 years ± 19. In 71.9% of the cases cultures were positives; 43.7% were caused by bacteria; 17.4% to fungi, and 10.8% bacteria and fungi. The most frequently isolated bacteria were negative coagulase Staphylococcus (29%), followed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa (16%), Streptococcus pneumoniae (10.5%) and Staphylococcus aureus (8.1%). Fusarium sp. accounted for 57.4% of the fungi. Data on treatment was available on 154 patients, of whom 77.8% received a combination of cefazolin 50 mg/ml and gentamicin 16mg/ml; 33.5% fluconazole and 12% ciprofloxacin. The outcome at two month post-treatment was evaluated in 133 patients, of whom 82% showed leucoma, 13.5% conjunctival flap and 4.5% evisceration. A worse outcome was related to fungal etiology and ulcer large size. The frequency of fungal keratitis is high in this series, and is related to a worse evolution. Fluconazole is the only antifungal available in Paraguay and since its effect is mainly on non- filamentous fungi others antifungal drugs, as natamicin, should be considered for the treatment of fungal keratitis, in order to prevent vision loss of many patients.

- Abstract
Background: Blepharitis is a very common disease in the ophthalmologic practice generally taking a chronic course with intermittent exacerbations. Several studies have linked the presence of Demodex folliculorum with chronic blepharitis, since the mite has the capacity to perpetuate the follicular inflammatory process. The prevalence of infection by Demodex spp. is variable depending on the population. In Paraguay, information on the frequency of the infestation in patients with chronic blepharitis is not available., Aim: To determine the frequency of Demodex spp, and the ocular microbiota in patients with chronic blepharitis attending the Department of Ophthalmology at the Teaching Hospital of the National University of Asuncion., Patients and Methods: Consecutively, 28 patients with chronic blepharitis, who agreed to participate in the study, were included. Eyes lashes from the upper and lower eyelids were extracted for immediate mite search by direct observation under a light microscope. Samples from eyelids were taken with Kimura spatula and then cultured on blood agar and in enrichment media and incubated in 5% CO2 at 35° C for 72 hours., Results: Among participants, females were more frequent (64%), the age ranged from 17 to 87 years (mean: 38.0; SD: ± 13.5 years). The prevalence of Demodex sp was 54%. Bacteria were isolated 92.9% of cases, most frequently coagulase-negative staphylococci (75%). No association was found between socio-demographic or clinical characteristics and the presence of Demodex sp., Conclusion: The observed high prevalence of infestation by Demodex spp in patients with chronic blepharitis is consistent with other studies.
