Objective To evaluate the practical application of the Media Fill Test(MFT)in assessing aseptic compounding competency of personnel in Pharmacy Intravenous Admixture Services(PIVAS).Methods A multicenter controlled study was conducted across six tertiary hospitals(center ①-⑥)in China.Participants were divided into an inexperienced group(Group A,n=118)and an experienced group(Group B,n=118),each performing five MFT operations.Positive controls validated medium efficacy.Contamination rates and pass rates were analyzed using chi-square and Fisher's exact tests.Results Valid samples included 584 for Group A and 588 for Group B.The sample pass rate was 66.78%(390/584)in Group A and 91.67%(539/588)in Group B,while personnel pass rates were 46.15%(54/117)and 80.51%(95/118),respectively,with significant intergroup differences(both P<0.01).All centers except Center ⑥ showed significantly higher pass rates in Group B(all P<0.05).Conclusion MFT effectively differentiates technical proficiency levels and is suitable for training evaluation of novice PIVAS staff.

Objective To study the relationship between erythromycin sensitivity and drug-resistance gene in Mycoplasma pneu-moniae(Mp).Methods In 46 erythromycin-resistant MP clinical isolates,domain Ⅴ of 23S rRNA was amplified by polymerase chain reaction(PCR),followed by direct automatic sequencing method.The DNA sequences were compared to find molecular mecha-nisms of drug resistance.Results Among the 46 erythromycin-resistant Mp clinical isolates,44(95.65%)harbored an A-to-G tran-sition mutation at position 2063 in the 23S rRNA gene and 2(4.35%)harbored an A-to-G transition mutation at position 2064,but no A-to-C transition mutation at position 2063 and C-to-G/A transition mutation at position 2617 were detected.Conclusion E-rythromycin-resistant of Mp clinical isolates were closely related to A-to-G transition mutation at position 2063/2064 in domain Ⅴof 23S rRNA genes and the most important was the A2063G transition mutation.Rapid and accurate identification of the genetic mutations in domain Ⅴ of 23S rRNA may be help to diagnose the infection of Mycoplasma pneumoniae,provide the drug-resistant information,and instruct the application of antibiotics reasonably and effectively.
