Abstract:
Objective To investigate whether prophylactic antifungal treatment will reduce the incidence of fungal infection(FI)and the mortality in severe acute pancreatitis(SAP).Methods Forty consecutive patients with SAP admitted from January 2008 to December 2009 were divided into prevention group and control group with 20 cases each by random digits table.The patients in prevention group underwent routine therapy plus intravenous fluconazol as prophylactic antifungal treatment,while routine therapy only in control group.The length of hospital stay,the time when FI occurred,the incidence of FI and mortality were compared with each other.Results Compared with control group,the length of hospital stay wag shorter[(40.3±15.4)d vs.(46.5±18.5)d],the time when FI occurred was slewer[(24.5±14.3)d vs. (14.5±12.7)d],the incidence of FI[15.0%(3/20)vs.35.0%(7/20)]and the mortality [10.0%(2/20)vs. 25.0%(5/20)]were lower in prevention group,there were significant differences between the two groups(P<0.05).Conclusion Prophylactic antifungal treatment can shorten the hospital stay,delay the FI occurrence,reduce the incidence of FI and the mortality in patients with SAP.
