Vestnik dermatologii i venerologii(2022)
Abstract
Implementation of the Russian version of Gonococcal Antimicrobial Surveillance Programme (RU-GASP) in XXI century is summarized. The chronology of evidence-based updating of national clinical guidelines for the gonococcal infection management is outlined. The reasons for penicillins, tetracyclines, and fluoroquinolones excluding from gonococcal infection treatment regimens is presented, and the dynamics of subsequent changes in the sensitivity of N. gonorrhoeae to these antimicrobials is described. The modern schemes of monotherapy of gonococcal infection with third generation cephalosporins and the chronology of increasing their recommended doses are presented. The spectinomycin indications and restrictions for alternative treatment of the gonococcal infection are characterized. The absence of azithromycin in Russian gonococcal infection guideline versus international experience of this antibiotic usage is discussed. Based on current data on the ongoing spread of antimicrobial resistance genetic determinants in N. gonorrhoeae, proposals have been made to improve the RU-GASP protocols and to select drugs for the modern gonococcal infection etiotropic therapy.
