Abstract:
Objective To reduce unreasonable use of antibiotics in acute suppurative tonsillitis cases. Methods Retrospective analyses of 1107 acute suppurative tonsillitis cases from the pediatric outpatient department were conducted.According to course of antibiotic treatment, these cases were divided into the group of full course of treatment and the group of insufficient course of treatment.According to the types of antibiotic, the subjects were di-vided into azithromycin group and non-azithromycin group.Three months after the onset of illness, the occurrence of complications and illness relapse between full course of treatment group and insufficient course group, azithromycin group and non-azithromycin group were analyzed.Meanwhile, the cases were divided into Chinese mainland group, Macao and Taiwan group, and foreign group according to their native places and nationalities.We compared the num-ber of cases used insufficient course in these three groups and analyzed their reasons.Results The relapse rate was significantly lower in the full course treatment group compared with insufficient course treatment group ( P<0.05 ) , and significantly higher in non-azithromycin group compared with azithromycin group ( P<0.05 ) .The occurrence rate of insufficient course treatment in the Chinese mainland group was obviously higher than the Macao group, Tai-wan group and foreign group (P<0.05).The main reasons for insufficient course of treatment were the insufficient patients′obedience and some doctors′poor understanding of the disease course.Conclusion A full course treatment with antibiotics on acute suppurative tonsillitis are strongly suggested.It may be of great significant to strengthen the awareness of reasonable use of antibiotics among the inland citizens.
