ABSTRACT

It was performed a descriptive transversal study about the behavior of Bacterial Vaginitis caused by Gardnerella vaginalis in the patients who assisted to the Microbiology laboratory of the Municipal Center of Epidemiology and Hygiene(MCEH) of Manzanillo during the year 2012. It had around 300 vaginal exudates performed during the period july-september 2011 and their ages were between 18 and 44 years old. From them, 86 were positive to Gardnerella vaginalis (39.82%) and the group of ages mostly affected were between 18 and 29 years old (major reproductive incidence in women). This microorganism was diagnosed through specific determinations, besides it was applied a survey to the positive patients and it determined the epidemiologic factors that produced the infection. The information obtained was processed into a data basis (statistical package SPSS 11.5) and it was evidenced through tables for its better analysis and discussion of the results.
