ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of interleukin2 (IL-2 ) in the treatment of children with recurrent respiratory tract infection( RRTI). Methods 160 children with RRTI from Mar 2005 to June 2008 in our hospital were divided into experimental group (n =80) and control group (n =80) randomly. IL-2 was given by hypodermic injection in experimental group and the other was treated with oral transfer factor. Then the clinical efficacy in two.groups was observed. Results The effects in the experimental group were superior to those in the control group(P <0.01). Conclusion IL-2 could enhance immunity and reduce the incidence rate of RRTI in children patients. The effects were superior to those patients treated with oral transfer factor.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of intensive control of residual amount in stomach on prevention of ventilator associated pneumonia(VAP)during the process of enteral nutrition. Methods 96 patients with mechanical ventilation(MV) more than 48 hours were randomly divided into the case group and the control group, they were treated with intensive control and common control of residual amount in stomach respectively. The incidence rate of VAP, mortality rate, time of ventilation and hospitalization time were compared between the two groups. Results The incidence rate of VAP was 20.83% in the case group and mortality rate was 18.75%,the time of MV was(15.21±2.36)days, the hospitalization time was(22.38±12.34)days. The incidence rate of VAP wag 39.58%.mortality rate was 39.58%,the time of MV wag(19.85±4.58)days, the hospitalization time was(29.46±15.24)days in the control group. Conclusions Intensive control of residual amount in stomach could be helpful to decrease the incidence of VAP and mortality rate of patients with mechanical ventilation using nasal feeding, also shorten the time of MV and the hospitalization time.
