ABSTRACT
Objective To study the application value of G-lipopolysaccharides(G-LPS) detection in patients with traumatic brain injury(TBI).Methods From Jan.2013 to Jun.2014,plasma G-LPS of TBI-patients and non-patients in this hospital were detected by using MB-80 microbiology analyzer and compared.Results of pathogenic microbiological detection of G-LPS positive TBI patients were analyzed,and G-LPS levels,detected before and after treatment,were also analyzed.Results G-LPS positive rate of TBI patients(33.33%) was higher than the 13.34% of non-TBI patients(P<0.05).After treatment,G-LPS level in G-LPS positive TBI patients significantly decreased(P<0.05).The common pathogenic bacteria,causing infection in TBI patients,included Acinetobacter bauman,Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli,and the most common infection diseases included respiratory tract infections and urinary tract infections.Conclusion G-LPS detection could be used for the early detection of secondary infection in TIB patients,with significance for guiding clinical treatment.
