ObjectiveTo investigate the role of dynamic monitoring procalcitonin (PCT) in the comprehensive evaluation during the diagnosis and treatment of community acquired pneumonia (CAP).
MethodsFour hundred and sixty-eight patients with CAP were randomly assigned to a PCT-guided group (the research group) and a standard guideline group (the control group). The clinical symptoms,CURB-65 grade,blood leucocyte count and classification,and C-reactive protein (CRP)were compared between two groups. The PCT-guided application time of antibiotics,the hospitalization time,chest CT examination rate,the cure or the improvement rate were also estimated and commpared.
ResultsThe hospitalization time [(9.6±1.7)days vs. (10.9±1.6)days],hospitalization cost [(6 957.11±1 009.46) yuan vs. (8 011.35±1 049.77) yuan],chest CT examination rate (56.96% vs. 89.40%),the application time of antibiotics [(16.5±2.3)days vs. (20.0±1.2)days],and the rate of required antibiotics upgrade (6.96% vs. 11.06%) in the research group were all significantly lower than the control group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between two groups in the ratio of the adverse reaction of antibiotics (14.78% vs. 15.20%),the rate of transfer into ICU (2.61% vs. 3.69%) or the mortality (1.74% vs. 2.30%)(P>0.05).
ConclusionOn the basis of CAP guidelines,the dynamic monitoring of PCT may shorten the time of antibiotic use and the hospitalization,reduce the cost of hospitalization and the rate of chest CT scan in patients with CAP.
【摘要】 目的 了解在圍手術期術前30 min應用抗生素的情況。 方法 根據2004年衛生部、國家中醫藥管理局、總后勤部發布的《抗菌藥物臨床應用指導原則》中圍手術期抗生素的使用原則,對四川大學華西醫院2010年4-6月500臺手術圍手術期抗生素的使用情況進行分析。 結果 抗生素在麻醉前輸:0臺;抗生素末在術前30 min輸2臺,占0.4%;抗生素末即用即配:0臺;抗生素與麻藥及其他禁忌藥混合輸:0臺;手術3 h后末及時追加抗生素:0臺;特殊患者使用抗生素的注意事項不清楚2臺,占0.4%。 結論 該院99.6%的手術實行在手術室術前30 min輸入抗生素,確保抗生素達到有效濃度,有效控制感染,保證手術的成功,保障患者安全。【Abstract】 Objective To investigate the application of perioperative antibiotics half an hour before operation in West China Hospital of Sichuan University. Methods According to Clinical Guidance of Antibiotics published by Ministry of Health, State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine and General Logistics Department in 2004, we investigated the application of perioperative antibiotics in 500 operations between April to June 2010 in our hospital. Results There was no operation with infusion of antibiotics before anesthesia, 2 operations without infusion of antibiotics half an hour before operation (0.4%), no operation without immediate infusion after preparation, no operation with mixed infusion of antibiotics and anesthesia and other contraindicated drugs, no operation without infusion of antibiotics 3 hours after operation, and 2 operations in which cautious items about the children, pregnancy and old patients were unclear (0.4%). Conclusion About 99.6% operations in our hospital have the infusion of antibiotics 30 minutes before the operation, which is the guarantee of antibiotics with effective concentration, inhibition of infection, success of the operation and safety of the patients.
Objective To systematically evaluate the clinical effect and safety of Bifidobacterium tetravaccine tablets in the treatment of antibiotic associated diarrhea (ADD) in infants in China. Methods Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of treatment of AAD by Bifidobacterium tetravaccine in infants were searched by computer from China Knowledge Resource Integrated Database, VIP and Wanfang Data from their inception to November 2016. Meta-analysis of the data was carried out by RevMan 5.3 software. Results Twelve RCTs were chosen, which included 1 761 infant patients. The Meta analysis showed that the effects of treatment of ADD were significantly superior to those of the control group [OR=5.74, 95%CI (4.14, 7.96),P<0.000 01]. Among the 12 RCTs, 8 had no adverse reactions, while the rest4 articles did not mention adverse reactions. Conclusions Based on the present clinical evidences, treatment of ADD by Bifidobacterium tetravaccine in infants is effective and safe. But due to the small number and different quality of RCTs, this conclusion still needs to be confirmed by large sample, multicenter, and high-quality clinical RCTs.
