ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:

To investigate the risk factors of purulent meningitis complicated with subdural effusion in infants and young children.

METHODS:

The clinical data of the infants and young children who were diagnosed with purulent meningitis in PICU of Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University from January 2014 to December 2017 were analyzed retrospectively.All of them were divided into 2 groups according to whether there was complication of subdural effusion. The statistical data were analyzed by SPSS 20.0 software.

RESULTS:

There were significant differences in hemoglobin,C reactive protein and protein in cerebrospinal fluid between control group and subdural effusion group(P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that hemoglobin(OR=0.940,95%CI0.899—0.998),C reactive protein(OR=1.015,95%CI1.004—1.028)and protein in cerebrospinal fluid(OR=2.490,95%CI1.151—6.315)were independent risk factors for purulent meningitis complicated with subdural effusion(P<0.05).

CONCLUSION:

Infants and young children diagnosed with purulent meningitis are with lower hemoglobin. Higher C reactive protein and higher protein in cerebrospinal fluid are likely to be complicated with subdural effusion.
