ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy of aerosolized aminoglycoside antibiotics in patients with ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) by meta-analysis.MethodsWe searched PubMed, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP and Wanfang Data for the Chinese and English literature on aerosolized aminoglycoside antibiotics for VAP until May, 2018. After data extraction and quality evaluation, RevMan 5.2 software was performed for meta-analysis.ResultsA total of 9 randomized controlled trials and a total of 543 patients were included in this study. Compared with patients treated with non-atomized inhaled aminoglycoside antibiotics, meta-analysis showed that aerosol inhalation of amikacin significantly improved the clinical cure rate of patients with VAP ［odds ratio (OR)=2.37, 95% confidence interval (CI) (1.50, 3.75), P=0.000 2］, nebulized tobramycin ［OR=2.30, 95%CI (0.92, 5.78), P=0.08］ and two or more antibiotics ［OR=2.00, 95%CI (0.62, 6.46), P=0.25］ had no significant effect on the clinical cure rate of patients with VAP; aerosolized aminoglycoside antibiotics had no significant effect on mortality of patients ［OR=1.17, 95%CI (0.66, 2.07), P=0.59］ and tracheal spasm rate ［OR=2.39, 95%CI (0.94, 6.11), P=0.07］ and renal dysfunction rate ［OR=0.62, 95%CI (0.32, 1.21), P=0.16］ in patients with VAP.ConclusionInhalation of amikacin can significantly improve the clinical cure rate of patients with VAP, but it can not reduce the mortality rate of patients; the safety of aerosolized aminoglycoside antibiotics is good, and the risk of tracheal spasm and renal function damage in patients with VAP is not increased.
【摘要】目的探讨喉癌手术后患者对两种不同雾化方式的耐受性,为选择最佳雾化方式提供参考。方法将49例喉癌手术后患者随机分为观察组(25例)和对照组(24例),观察组采用氧气雾化吸入,对照组采用空气压缩泵雾化吸入。分别记录两组患者雾化吸入前及吸入15 min时脉搏血氧饱和度(SpO2)及心率;雾化过程中患者有无心慌、气紧等不适以及雾化后痰液的性质及量。采用SPSS 13.0软件进行统计分析。结果两组患者雾化吸入15 min时的SpO2差异有统计学意义(Plt;001),观察组高于对照组;而两组患者雾化吸入前SpO2、心率、不适主诉及雾化后痰液的性质差异均无统计学意义(Pgt;005)。结论氧气雾化吸入可以提高喉癌手术后患者雾化过程中的SpO2,使患者感觉更加舒适。【Abstract】Objective To investigate postoperative patients with laryngeal carcinoma atomization of two different forms of tolerance, in order to choose the best means of atomization. Methods Fifty postoperative patients with laryngeal carcinoma were divided into observation group using oxygen inhalation and control group using the air compression pump inhalation. Two groups of patients were recorded the value of SpO2 and heart rate before 15 minutes after the inhalation,as well as the discomforts such as flustered,gas tight during the atomization process and the nature and olume of sputum. Results The results of two groups of patients at the time of 15 minutes inhalation SpO2 statistically significant difference (Plt;001), the observation group than in the control group average SpO2 high; and two groups of patients with preinhalation SpO2 average, average heart rate, Discomfort chief complaint and the nature of sputum after aerosol compared no significant difference (Pgt;005). Conclusion Oxygen inhalation in patients with laryngeal cancer can improve the atomization process SpO2 value, so that patients feel more comfortable.
Objective To compare the clinical efficacy of intravenous polymyxin B alone and intravenous drip combined with nebulized inhaled polymyxin B in treatment of patients with carbapenem-resistant organism (CRO) pneumonia. Methods The clinical data of 85 patients with CRO pneumonia admitted to the Intensive Care Unit of Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from September 2020 to June 2023 were collected using a retrospective study. According to the different ways of administration of polymyxin B, the patients receiving polymyxin B intravenous drip therapy alone were included in group A, and the patients receiving polymyxin B intravenous drip therapy combined with nebulized inhalation therapy were included in group B. The therapeutic effective rate, bacterial clearance rate, 30-day all-cause mortality and the level of infection indexes before and after the use of medication were compared between the two groups. The occurrence of acute kidney injury during the use of drugs in the two groups was observed and recorded. Results The pathogenicity culture results showed that there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups (P=0.144). Serum procalcitonin and C-reactive protein were significantly lower in the two groups after drug administration compared with those before drug administration (both P<0.05). The therapeutic efficiency and bacterial clearance rate in group B were higher than those in group A (both P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in 30-day all-cause mortality between the two groups (P=0.664). And there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups (P=0.650). Conclusion When polymyxin B is used to treat patients with CRO pneumonia, the intravenous drip combined with nebulized inhalation regimen is superior to intravenous drip therapy alone and does not increase the risk of developing nephrotoxicity.
Objective To evaluate the effects of midazolam intravenous drip combined with lidocaine via nebulization on patients during mechanical ventilation in intensive care unit ( ICU) . Methods 60 thoracic patients required postoperative mechanical ventilation in ICUwere randomized into 2 groups. The patients in therapeutic group received lidocaine 1 mg/kg via nebulization and midazolam intravenous drip 0. 1 mg·kg- 1·h- 1 . The patients in control group received 0. 9% NaCl 1 mg/kg via nebulization andmidazolam0. 1 mg·kg- 1 ·h- 1 . According to the scale of Ramsay, the additional midazolam and fentanyl were injected to maintain sedation and inhibit cough in both groups. During ventilation, calm score, the number and the severity of cough, the mean arterial pressure ( MAP) , heart rate ( HR) , and the consumption of midazolam and fentanyl were record. Results The number and severity of cough, the scale of MAP and HR in the therapeutic group were all significant lower than those in the control group ( P lt; 0. 05) . Theconsumption of midazolam and fentanyl in the therapeutic group were also significantly lower than that in the control group ( P lt; 0. 05) .Conclusion Midazolam intravenous drip combined with lidocaine via nebulization can reduce the side effects and requirement of sedative and opioids drug in ICU patients undergoing mechanical ventilation.
ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy of triple aerosol inhalation of pulmicort respules,ipratropine and ventolin in treatment of severe acute asthma exacerbations in adults. Methods46 cases of severe asthmatic patients with acute exacerbations admitted between May 2011 and May 2013 were recruited in the study.They were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group,23 cases in each group.The control group received aminophylline and methylprednisolone intravenously,while the treatment group received triple aerosol inhalation of pulmicort respules,ipratropine and ventolin on the basic treatment of the control group.The clinical efficacy,the score of asthma symptom of the day and night,the time of disappearance of symptoms and wheezing sound,the glucocorticoid dosage and the incidence of adverse reactions of each group were compared. ResultsComparison of clinical efficacy of two groups drew significant differences (P<0.05) after 7 days.The score of asthma symptom of the day and night in the treatment group was lower than that of the control group (P<0.05).Except cough,the duration of wheezing,breathlessness,chest distress and extinction time of wheezing sound in the treatment group were shorter than those in the control group (P<0.05).The triple inhalation therapy can reduce the dosage and shorten the period of intravenous glucocorticoid treatment with slight adverse reactions (P<0.05). ConclusionIn the treatment of severe asthmatic patients with acute exacerbations,the clinical efficacy of triple aerosol inhalation of pulmicort respules,ipratropine and ventolin on the base of intravenous treatment is satisfactory with rapid onset,which can also reduce the glucocorticoid dosage and the incidence of adverse reactions.So the combination therapy is worthy of clinical use.
ObjectiveTo explore the influence of general anesthesia with laryngeal mask and preoperative inhalation of budesonide aerosol on the incidence of respiratory adverse events during pediatric anesthesia recovery. MethodsA total of 100 child patients scheduled to undergoing inguinal hernia repair between December 2012 and February 2014 were randomly divided into two groups (group A and B) with 50 in each. All the patients underwent general anesthesia with laryngeal mask, while patients in group B inhaled budesonide aerosol before anesthesia. Then, we observed the incidence of adverse events in both groups, including laryngospasm, respiratory tract infection, and pulmonary complications. ResultsCompared with group A, patients in group B had a lower incidence of adverse events (P<0.05). ConclusionPreoperative application of budesonide aerosol inhalation can significantly reduce adverse events in the process of anesthesia recovery in children.
Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effects of different airway management strategies early used for patients after abdominal surgery in general anesthesia. Methods According to gender, age,and operation location,200 patients after abdominal surgery in general anesthesia were randomly assigned to four groups, ie. a conventional treatment group ( Group A) , an incentive spirometry ( IS) therapy group ( Group B) , an aerosol inhalation group ( Group C) , a combination of inhalation and IS therapy group ( Group D) . Inhalation drugs included Budesonide, Terbutaline, and Ambroxol. The index of pulmonary function test ( FVC, FEV1 , PEF) and arterial blood gases analysis ( ABG) were measured, and the effect of secretions clearance and the improvement of respiratory symptoms were evaluated at 0.5 h,24 h, 48 h after extubation.Intratracheal intubation of the patients after leaving ICUwas followed up. Results FVC, FEV1 , PEF, ABG,sputumvolume, the effect of secretions clearance, clinical efficacy, and intratracheal intubation rate in group B, C and D were improved more significantly than those in group A. And the therapeutic effect was best in group D ( P lt;0. 05) . The secretions clearance was improved more better in group C and D, especially in those high-risk patients with advanced age, smoking history, and pulmonary cormobidities ( P lt; 0. 05) .Conclusions The combined use of IS training and inhalation therapy can improve airway secretions clearance and pulmonary function particularly for those patients after abdominal surgery in general anesthesia, especially for those high-risk patients.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical effects of nebulized lidocaine anesthesia and anesthesia with lidocaine and midazolam in patients with preoperative bronchoscopy. MethodsTotally, 136 inpatients between May 2002 and June 2013 with preoperative bronchoscopy were included in the study. The patients were randomly assigned to experimental group and control group with 68 patients in each. For patients in the experimental group, 8 mL of 2% lidocaine was administered through inhalation anesthesia, followed by 2-3 mg bolus of midazolam, and subsequently 0.5 mg of midazolam was administered every 2 minutes depending on patients' awareness. Patients in the control group accepted lidocaine alone for anesthesia. The clinical efficacy and adverse effects of both the two ways of anesthesia were observed. ResultsThe time of sustained and effective anesthesia was (24.5±2.8) minutes in the experimental group, as compared with (16.8±2.1) minutes in the control group (P<0.01). The average amount of consumption of lidocaine was (12.4±1.3) mL in the experimental group, as compared with (16.8±1.5) mL in the control group (P<0.01). The heart rate at 5 min after operation was (81.5±19.5) beats/min in the experimental group, as compared with (94.6±34.6) beats/min in the control group (P<0.01). The mean pulse oxygen saturation at 5 min after operation was (93.5±3.6)% in the experimental group, as compared with (88.2±13.3)% in the control group (P<0.01). ConclusionCombined application of lidocaine and midazolam before bronchoscopy is simple and feasible for anesthesia, which has higher success rate, lesser side effects and other reactions such as body movement and coughing.
