ABSTRACT
Objective: To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of rapidly growing mycobacteria bloodstream infections.Methods: Based on the two pharmaceutical consultation practice for one case of rapidly growing mycobacteria bloodstream infections after fracture operation, the paper summarized and analyzed the problems in different stages of treatment.Results: The first consultation optimized the dosage of vancomycin according to the patient''s serum concentration and creatinine clearance rate.The second consultation suggested doctors actively perform anti-infection treatment for rapidly growing mycobacteria after the patient''s clinical symptoms and examination results were improved significantly.It is recommended to withdraw anti TB drugs, and the use of clarithromycin combined with amikacin was suitable.The patient was discharged with improved health conditions.Conclusion: Positive intervention and correct diagnosis are the keys for the successful treatment of suspected or definite mycobacteria infection in surgical sites.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the thoughts and methods of clinical pharmacists involving in the treatment of 2 cases of atyp-ical pathogen infection. Methods:The consultation cases of 2 patients with atypical pathogens infection were analyzed,and the consul-tation experience was summarized. Results: After the consultation, the treatment efficacy of the patients was obvious. Conclusion:Clinical pharmacists can assist doctors in improving the efficacy and safety of drug treatment.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To summarize the participation of clinical pharmacists in the treatment of patients after craniocerebral opera-tion with pulmonary infection. Methods: Clinical pharmacists assisted physicians in identifying infectious bacteria and colonization bacteria of one patient with pulmonary infection after craniocerebral operation and establishing the anti-infection treatment regimen. Re-sults:Clinical pharmacists analyzed various factors such as infection risk factors, clinical and laboratory manifestation and medication history, and effectively selected antibacterial drugs covering the infectious bacteria to timely control the infection. Conclusion: With pharmaceutical knowledge, clinical pharmacists can assist physicians in the interpretation of bacterial culture and drug susceptibility re-ports to promote safer, more timely and effective medication for patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To characterize the secondary osteoporosis in hemiplegic patients. Methods By use of dual energy X ray absorptometry, the bone density and bone mineral quantity of 156 hemiplegic inpatients were tested and analyzed. Results The incidence of osteoporosis was 44.4% during 3～6 months after stroke and 21.1% found during 9～12 months after stroke. The average incidence was 30.8%. The osteoporosis was more common in patients with flaccid hemiplegia than in those with spastic hemiplegia. The bone mineral quantity in the affected upper limbs was significantly lower than that in nonaffected side ( P 0.05). Conclusion The bone mineral quantity of hemiplegic patients varies with the duration of disease. The reduction of bone mineral quantity is regular and reversible.
ABSTRACT
@#ObjectiveTo investigate application of exercise stress test after acute myocardial infarction(AMI). Methods32 patients with AMI performed exercise stress test adopted the Bruce protocol in 16 days-8weeks after onset, at the same time cardiac functional capacity was measured.ResultsThe stress test was positive in 17 cases, whose cardiac functional capacity was 1.5-7 METs,and it was negative in 15 cases, whose cardiac functional capacity is 4-12 METs.Conclusions①Second class amount limited exercise stress test is safe to adaptive AMI patients. ②Cardiac functional capacity measurement is benefit to instruct patient rehabilitation exercise. ③Exercise stress test is valuable to estimate prognosis of AMI.
