| الوصف: | Introduction The higher frequency of infections in diabetic patients is caused by a hyperglycemic environment, which promotes immune dysfunction. People with diabetes are more prone to skin infections. A continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system provides information on changes in blood glucose (BG) levels throughout the day. Its use facilitates optimal therapeutic decisions for a diabetic patient. One of the factors limiting the use of CGM is inflammation at the insertion site. Aim of the study The aim of the study was the microbiological identification of the bacterial strains which are found on CGM sensor electrodes. Material and methods We performed microbiological tests on patients′ CGM Enlite Medtronic electrodes, which were removed after 6 days of usage according to the manufacturer′s instructions. 31 sensors were examined from 31 children (14 girls) aged from 0.5 to 14.6 years. The microbiological analysis was routinely performed at the Department of Children’s Diabetology Medical University of Silesia in Katowice, Poland. Results 12 (39%) of the electrodes were colonized. In 11 (92%) cases the electrodes were colonized by one bacteria strain. 7 times methicillin-sensitive coagulase negative staphylococcus (MSCNS) was detected. We also found one case of Klebsiella pneumoniae, Ochrobactrum tritici, Bacillus sonorensis and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci (MRCNS) colonization. One electrode was colonized by the mixed flora Enterococcus faecalis, methicillin-susceptible coagulase-negative Staphylococci (MSCNS), Pseudomonas stutzeri, methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA). The median HbA1c in the group with colonization of electrodes was 6, 85% (6, 3–7, 6%) versus 6, 3% (5, 8–7, 5%) in the group without colonization. The median BMI in the group with colonization of the electrodes was 17.10 kg/m2 (16.28–18.62 kg/m2) versus 15.98 kg/m2 (15.14–17.96 kg/m2) in the group without colonization. Statistically, significantly more frequently electrodes are colonized in older children (median age in the group with colonization of electrodes 11.43 years (6.52–12.27 years), without colonization 8.42 years. (3.098–9.375 years); (p = 0.033). Conclusions It seems that older children are more likely to have their sensor electrode colonized by bacterial strains. |
