Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To explore the effects of piperacillin/tazobactam combined with acetylcysteine solution on severe pneumonia after cerebral infarction,and to analyze its impact on cardiopulmonary and neurological function.METHODS A total of 86 patients with severe pneumonia after cerebral infarction admitted to Yulin Xingyuan Hos-pital from Jan.2022 to Jun.2024 were selected and divided into a control group and a study group using the ran-dom number table method(single blind),with 43 cases in each group.The control group was treated with intrave-nous drip of piperacillin/tazobactam,while the study group received additional inhalation of acetylcysteine solution based on the control group's treatment.The levels of inflammatory factors[C-reactive protein(CRP),interleukin-6(IL-6)and procalcitonin(PCT)],lung function indicators[forced vital capacity(FVC),peak expiratory flow rate(PEF),forced expiratory volume in one second(FEV1)and mean maximal expiratory flow rate(MMEF)],cardiac function indicators[left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),cardiac output(CO),cardiac index(CI)and stroke volume(SV)],NIH Stroke Scale(NIHSS)score,clinical efficacy,and the occurrence of adverse reactions were compared before and after treatment.RESULTS Compared with the control group,the study group had low levels of CRP,IL-6,PCT and NIHSS scores after treatment(P<0.05),and high levels of FVC,PEF,FEV1,MMEF,LVEF,CO,CI,and SV after treatment(P<0.05).The overall response rate in the study group was 95.35%,higher than 81.40%in the control group(χ2=4.074,P=0.044).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the control group and the study group during treatments(χ2=0.179,P=0.672).CONCLUSION Piperacillin/tazobactam combined with inhaled acetylcysteine solution for the treatment of severe pneumonia after cerebral infarction can improve clinical efficacy,reduce levels of inflamma-tory factors,and enhance cardiopulmonary and neurological functions in patients,which has a high safety profile.
