Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of modified anti -tuberculosis scheme in the treatment of tuberculous meningitis.Methods 60 cases with tuberculous meningitis were randomly divided into two groups.We enrolled 30 patients in each group.The traditional anti -tuberculosis group used traditional anti -tuberculosis scheme with isoniazid,rifampicin,pyrazinamide,streptomycin,and the modified anti -tuberculosis group was given isoniazid,rifampicin,pyrazinamide,levofloxacin,the treatment course of tuberculous meningitis was 12 months.The efficacy and safety through clinical manifestations and laboratory examinations,the dynamic changes of cerebrospinal fluid were evaluated by statistical methods.Results The total effective rate of the modified anti -tuberculosis group was significantly higher than the traditional anti -tuberculosis group(86.6% vs.63.3%,χ2 =4.36,P <0.05).The cerebrospinal fluid routine and biochemical index in the modified anti -tuberculosis group were obviously superior to the traditional anti -tuberculosis group after treatment(all P <0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(26.6% vs.16.7%,χ2 =0.88,P >0.05).Conclusion Levofloxacin combined with other first -line anti -tuberculosis drugs,glucocorticoids,dehydration and other comprehensive measures improved brain function for the treatment of tuberculous meningitis is recommended.
