Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on serum procalcitonin (PCT), white blood cells(WBC) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels in children with necrotising fasciitis (NF) and its efficacy, and explore the diagnosis value of above indicators.Methods From March 2011 to June 2014,50 cases children with acute necrotic fasciitis treated in Children's Hospital of Hebei Province as study group,which were randomly divided into hyperbaric oxygen group (n =25) and routine group (n =25) .The routine group received the routine therapy of incision and drainage to clear the lesion, hyperbaric oxygen group received hyperbaric oxygen therapy on the basis of routine group,while 50 healthy children were selected as control group.The serum PCT, WBC, hs-CRP levels, efficacy, complications, death and hospitalization time were observed and compared.Results The serum PCT, WBC and hs-CRP levels pre-treatment in study group were higher than those in control group(P<0.05).The area under the ROC curve of PCT and hs-CRP was 1.000,respectively, and WBC was 0.804, there were significant difference between PCT and WBC (Z=5.250,P=0.000), between hs-CRP and WBC (Z=5.037,P=0.000).After treatment, the wounds of 23 case patients (92.00%) were cured in hyperbaric oxygen group, and 21 cases in routine group (84.00%) , there were no significant difference in cure rate between two groups.There were six cases(24.00%) of complications and one case (4.00%) of death in hyperbaric oxygen group,while nine cases (36.00%) of complications and two cases (8.00%) of death, there were no significant difference in complications rate and death rate between two groups.The hospitalization time in hyperbaric oxygen group was (39.17 ±6.73) d, which was significantly lower than (52.13 ±4.28) d in routine group(P<0.05).Conclusion PCT and hs-CRP have certain value in diagnosis of children with acute necrotizing fasciitis; incision and drainage combined with hyperbaric oxygen therapy has a better clinical effect in the treatment of children with acute necrotizing fasciitis.
