OBJECTIVE:To observe therapeutic efficacy and safety of Xiaoer jiegan granules with Ribavirin in the treatment of acute upper respiratory tract infection. METHODS:98 patients with upper respiratory tract infection were randomly divided into obser-vation group and control group with 49 cases in each group. Control group was given Ribavirin injection for routine upper respiratory tract antiviral therapy,10-15 mg/kg,added into 5% Glucose injection 250 ml,ivgtt,qd. Observation group was given Xiaoer jiegan granules,1g/time for 1-3 year-old children,2g/time for 4-6 year-old children and 3 g/time for 7-9 year-old,tid. A treatment course of 2 groups lasted for 5 days,both received 2 courses of treatment. Clinical efficacy,cough and other symptoms score,ADR were ob-served in 2 groups. RESULTS:The effective rate of observation group (97.96%) was higher than that of control group (87.76%), with statistical significance(P<0.05). Before treatment,there was no significant difference in the scores of fever and cough and other symptoms between 2 groups,with statistical significance(P>0.05);after treatment, the scores of fever and cough and other symp-toms in observation group were lower than in control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). The incidence of ADR in the ob-servation group(6.12%)was significantly lower than in control group(22.45%),with statistical significance(P<0.05). CONCLU-SIONS:Xiaoer jiegan granule with Ribavirin is effective in the treatment of acute upper respiratory tract virus infection,and can im-prove fever,cough and other clinical symptoms,so as to promote better conditions and reduce the occurrence of ADR.

Objective To investigate the effect of sevoflurane preconditioning on lung compliance and oxygenation index during one lung ventilation( OLV) . Methods In this study, sixty patients, ASAⅠorⅡ, scheduled for pul-monary surgeries were enrolled, and randomly divided into two groups:sevoflurane preconditioning group(n=30) and total intravenous group( n=30 ) . For preconditioning, patients in sevoflurane preconditioning group were ad-ministrated with one minimal alveolar concentration(1MAC) sevoflurane for 30 min after general anesthesia induc-tion and then followed with total intravenous anesthesia. While in total intravenous group, only intravenous anes-thetic agents were administrated for maintenane of anesthesia after induction. The indexes of hemodynamics, pulse oximeter( SpO2 ) , plateau pressure( Pplat) and lung compliance( Cdyn) were recorded at the following time points:before anesthesia( T0 ) , after anesthesia induction at laternal position TLV 30 min( T1 ) ,30 min after OLV( T2 ) , 60 min after OLV( T3 ) and recovering TLV 20 min( T4 ) . Arterial blood samples were taken to measure partial pressure of carbon dioxide( PaCO2 ) , partial pressure of oxygen( PaO2 ) , pH, oxygenation index( PaO2/FiO2 ) at the follow-ing time points: T1 , T2 , T3 , T4 . Results Compared with T1 , the oxygenation index and lung compliance de-creased significantly at T2 ,T3 ( P<0. 05 ); compared with total intravenous group, the lung compliance was obvi-ously higher than that in sevoflurane preconditioning group at T2,T3(P<0. 05). There were no significantly differ-ences in the oxygenation index between total intravenous group and sevoflurane preconditioning group at all time points. Conclusion Compared with total intravenous anesthesia with propofol , sevoflurane preconditioning can im-prove lung compliance, but does not make contribute to improve oxygenation index.
