根据急性咳嗽/下呼吸道感染患者痰变色情况给予抗生素治疗
2011/08/31
摘要
我们研究痰液变色和感觉不适是否与抗生素的使用相关,以及在这种情况下给予抗生素治疗是否对急性咳嗽/下呼吸道感染(LTRI)有益。本研究是一项前瞻性研究,来自13个国家的3402名成人患者入选。两水平的模型用于研究痰液变色或感觉不适与抗生素治疗之间的关系。三水平的模型用于研究抗生素治疗与症状缓解之间的关系。与无痰液变色的患者相比,出现痰液变色的患者更有可能采用抗生素治疗(OR 3.2, 95% CI 2.1-5.0),这与白色/清亮痰液患者不同(OR 0.95, 95% CI 0.61-1.48)。黄色痰液的患者(系数为0.00;p = 0.68),绿色痰液的患者(系数为-0.01;p = 0.11),主诉有三类中任何一类不适的患者,痰液变色伴感觉不适的患者(系数为-0.01;p = 0.19),抗生素治疗与症状评分下降比例和下降幅度无关(通过13个项目的问卷调查检测,每天由患者完成)。在初级医疗机构,与无咳痰患者相比,咳嗽/下呼吸道感染的成人患者,痰液变色后更有可能采用抗生素治疗。单纯的痰液颜色,或伴有一般性感觉不适,均与抗生素治疗后的恢复或疗效无关。

Abstract
We investigated whether discoloured sputum and feeling unwell were associated with antibiotic prescription and benefit from antibiotic treatment for acute cough/lower respiratory tract infection (LTRI) in a prospective study of 3,402 adults in 13 countries. A two-level model investigated the association between producing discoloured sputum or feeling generally unwell and an antibiotic prescription. A three-level model investigated the association between an antibiotic prescription and symptom resolution. Patients producing discoloured sputum were prescribed antibiotics more frequently than those not producing sputum (OR 3.2, 95% CI 2.1-5.0), unlike those producing clear/white sputum (OR 0.95, 95% CI 0.61-1.48). Antibiotic prescription was not associated with a greater rate or magnitude of symptom score resolution (as measured by a 13-item questionnaire completed by patients each day) among those who: produced yellow (coefficient 0.00; p = 0.68) or green (coefficient -0.01; p = 0.11) sputum; reported any of three categories of feeling unwell; or produced discoloured sputum and felt generally unwell (coefficient -0.01; p = 0.19). Adults with acute cough/LRTI presenting in primary care settings with discoloured sputum were prescribed antibiotics more often compared to those not producing sputum. Sputum colour, alone or together with feeling generally unwell, was not associated with recovery or benefit from antibiotic treatment.
