Background: About 60% of all nosocomial infections are caused by microorganisms found in bio films. Acinetobacter baumannii, as a pathogen of nosocomial infections, occur more frequently in surgical hospitals. The aim of the study was to study the in vitro formation of A. baumannii monotype biofilms under the influence of local anesthetics and antiseptics. Materials and methods: The antimicrobial activity of lo cal anesthetics (0.25-0.5%, bupivacaine, 2.0% lidocaine, 0.75% ropivacaine) and antiseptics (decamethoxine 0.1%, octenidine 0.1%, chlorhexidine 0.05%) against clinical strains of A. baumannii and studied their ability to produce biofilms. Results: The bacteriostatic effect of local anesthetics on A. baumannii within the current concentrations of these drugs, which provide analgesic effect, has been proven. The given results indicate that A.baumanni cultures have a pronounced ability to form biofilms. Clinical strains of opportunistic microorgan isms A. baumannii circulating in the hospital environment are highly sensitive to antiseptics decamethoxine and octenidine, chlorhexidine has a weak bactericidal effect against acinetobacteria. The results of studying
the effect of local anesthetics on the process of formation of the strain “young” biofilms showed the pres ence of a dose-dependent effect. The greatest inhibitory activity against “young” biofilms was detected under the combined action of the antiseptic decamethoxine (in concentrations, not exceeding 3.9 μg / ml) and anesthetics (OD-0,199-0,223) (p <0,05). Conclusions: Scientific research on various aspects of the forma tion (or destruction) of bacterial biofilms is a relevant and promising area that will change approaches to the prophylaxis and treatment of a number of infections, including postoperative infectious complications.
