Application of reduced glutathione in the treatment of acetaminophen poisoning / 实用医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the effects of reduced glutathione(GSH) in the treatment of acetamino-phen poisoning. Methods A total of 60 patients with acetaminophen poisoning treated in our hospital from June 2014 to May 2016 were selected.The patients were randomly divided into the control diagnosis and treatment group (n=30) and GSH diagnosis and treatment group(n=30).The patients of two groups were treated with anti-infec-tion,correction of water electrolyte disturbance and acid-base imbalance,and nutrition support treatment accord-ing to the poisoning routine.The control diagnosis and treatment group was treated with GSH,and the GSH diagno-sis and treatment group were treated with GSH according to the use assessment table.The liver function and the lev-el of cholinesterase(CHE) of the two groups before and after treatment were observed,and the adverse reactions and economic benefits of the two groups were statistically analyzed. Results The incidence of adverse drug reac-tions in the GSH diagnosis and treatment group was 10.00%,while that in the control diagnosis and treatment group was 23.33%,and there was a significant difference in the incidence of adverse drug reactions between the 2 groups(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the levels of AST,ALB and CHE between the 2 groups before treatment(P>0.05).After treatment,the levels of AST and ALB of the GSH diagnosis and treatment group were significantly lower than those of the control diagnosis and treatment group(P < 0.05). The CHE level of the GSH diagnosis and treatment group was significantly higher than that of the control diagnosis and treatment group (P<0.05).The GSH dose,cost of treatment and days of hospitalization of the GSH diagnosis and treatment group were significantly lower than those of the control diagnosis and treatment group(P < 0.05). Conclusions The GSH for treatment of acetaminophen poisoning is effective,in terms of improving the level of liver function and re-ducing the level of inflammatory factors.Therefore,it is worthy of popularization and application.
