Effect of sequential therapy of antibacterial drugs on acute mesenteric lymphadenitis caused by bacterial infection in children / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To investigate the effect of cephalosporin sequential therapy on acute mesenteric lymphadenitis caused by bacterial infection.@*Methods@#From December 2015 to December 2018, 66 patients with acute mesenteric lymphadenitis caused by bacterial infection in Shaoxing Central Hospital were randomly selected.The control group(33 cases) received intravenous infusion of cefuroxime.The observation group(33 cases) was treated with intravenous infusion of cefuroxime, after the abdominal pain disappeared and the peripheral blood cell count returned to normal, the cefuroxime axetil tablet was given orally.The clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated, and the treatment costs and adverse reactions of the two groups were counted.@*Results@#The total effective rate of the observation group was 96.97%(32/33), compared with 90.91%(30/33) of the control group, the difference was not statistically significant(χ2=1.26, P=0.53). The total cost of treatment in the observation group was (326.85±51.88)CNY, which was lower than that of the control group[(576.82±72.17)CNY], the difference was statistically significant(t=16.15, P=0.00). There were no significant adverse reactions in the two groups during treatment periods.@*Conclusion@#Sequential therapy with cefuroxime and venous infusion of cefuroxime for the treatment of acute mesenteric lymphadenitis in children with bacterial infection is safe, but sequential therapy is less expensive and therefore recommended.
