To find out the presence of bacteremia following micro-osteoperforation.
The sample consisted of 28 Class I orthodontic patients (21 women, 7 men; mean age, 18.11±0.4 years). The micro-osteoperforation was performed 4 weeks following bonding of fixed orthodontic appliances. Using aseptic technique, 20-mL blood sample was collected before the micro-osteoperforation and another 20-mL, 60 seconds after the first micro-osteoperforation. The blood was inoculated into culture bottles and incubated at 37°C for 1 week. Bacterial growth was investigated by using Gram staining technique. The results were analysed using the McNemar test.
No significant difference between the preoperative and postoperative samples was found with respect to bacteremia (P=0.229).
Micro-osteoperforation technique is not related to transitory bacteremia.
探究微骨穿孔术后菌血症的存在情况。
样本包括28例I类正畸患者(21名女性,7名男性;平均年龄18.11±0.4岁)。在固定正畸矫治器粘结4周后进行微骨穿孔。采用无菌技术,在微骨穿孔前采集20毫升血液样本,在首次微骨穿孔60秒后再采集20毫升血液样本。将血液接种到培养瓶中,于37°C孵育1周。采用革兰氏染色技术研究细菌生长情况。结果采用McNemar检验进行分析。
术前和术后样本在菌血症方面未发现显著差异(P = 0.229)。
微骨穿孔技术与短暂菌血症无关。
