Abstract:
Objective To observe the effects of mucosolvan combined with bronchoalveolar lavage on pulmonary infection of tracheostomy patients after severe traumatic brain injury.Methods Forty-two patients were chosen in our study and divided randomly into combination therapy group (mucosolvan injection combined with bronchoalveolar lavage,n=21)and control group(bronchoalveolar lavage alone,n=21).Their bronchoalveolar lavage fluid was examined cytologically.One month after tracheostomy,the pulmonary infection conditions of these patients and their control status were observed,and the number of patients performed removal of trachea cannula was calculated.Results Leucocyte count in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid in combination therapy group was significantly reduced since the 5th and 7th d oftratment,and their polymorphocyte count was significantly reduced on the 3rd,5th and 7th d of treatment as compared with those in the control group(P＜0.05); significant differences were also noted between the 2 groups in the number of patients with pneumonia 1 month after tracheostomy,the days that patients′ infections were controlled and the numbers of patients whose trachea cannula were removed(P＜0.05).Conclusion Mucosolvan combined with bronchoalveolar lavage can reduce the early inflammation of the airway,and has more obvious therapeutic effect on pulmonary infection and recovery of airway than bronchoalveolar lavage alone.
