This review of the literature on the pathogenicity of B group beta-haemolytic streptococcal infection in perinatology first describes the clinical symptomatology of the illness in the newborn and its incidence. One per cent of all babies born to mothers with the infection are seriously affected themselves. Between one and three infants per thousand births die of it. B Group beta-haemolytic streptococcus is, together with E. Coli, the principal cause of neonatal death from infection. The techniques for identifying the bacteria are more reliable when the appropriate transport media and the selected culture media described in the text are used. The different therapies that have been put forward by different authors are described together with their results. In the conclusions reached the essential features that can be used to serve as a guide for the clinician in his choice of preventive or curative therapy are pointed out.
这篇关于围产医学中B组β溶血性链球菌感染致病性的文献综述，首先描述了新生儿疾病的临床症状及其发病率。感染该病菌的母亲所生的所有婴儿中，有1%会受到严重影响。每千例出生婴儿中有1至3例死于该病。B组β溶血性链球菌与大肠杆菌一起，是新生儿感染死亡的主要原因。当使用文中所述的适当转运培养基和选定的培养基时，细菌鉴定技术会更可靠。文中描述了不同作者提出的不同治疗方法及其结果。在得出的结论中，指出了可用于指导临床医生选择预防或治疗方法的基本特征。
