Background:The diagnosis and treatment of bacterial infections in pediatric patients is still controversial and not standardized. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of azithromycin and ciprofloxacin for treating bacterial infections in children with severe respiratory infections.
Methods:A retrospective study was conducted in an paediatric intensive care unit (PICU) of the Medical University of Riga, Riga, The island of Zealand, in the period between February 2001 and February 2004. A total of 1021 children with severe acute respiratory infections were admitted to the PICU between February 2001 and February 2004. The pathogens were identified through microbiological cultures, susceptibility testing, and susceptibility information. Of these, 14% of children had no clinical signs and symptoms. The antibiotics were chosen based on the following criteria:
Respiratory tract infection:1021 (70.1%) children (median age: 13.4 years) had at least one respiratory tract infection and at least one other systemic infection. Respiratory tract infection was defined as an infection of the upper respiratory tract and symptoms of the lower respiratory tract (including dyspnea, dyspnea pnea, and cough).
Genitourinary tract infection:743 (32.6%) children (median age: 23 years) had an upper tract infection and at least one other systemic infection. Genitourinary tract infection was defined as an infection of the upper respiratory tract and symptoms of the lower respiratory tract (including dyspnea, dyspnea pnea, and cough).
1516 (59.8%) children (median age: 39.2 years) had a genitourinary tract infection and at least one other systemic infection.
Respiratory tract infection and other systemic infections:1416 (59.8%) children (median age: 46.9 years) had at least one respiratory tract infection and at least one other systemic infection.
Other infections:1317 (59.8%) children (median age: 44.9 years) had an upper tract infection and at least one other systemic infection. Non-specific symptoms were present in only one child.
Complicated intra-abdominal abscess (CIAA):1318 (59.8%) children (median age: 46.9 years) had at least one CIAA. In order to evaluate the clinical relevance of CIAA in children, a total of 721 children with complicated intra-abdominal abscess were included. The incidence of CIAA was not statistically different between children with and without CIAA. In the present study, a single-site intra-abdominal ultrasound examination was performed in 721 children with complicated intra-abdominal abscess, and the results showed a low risk of CIAA (median age: 36.3 years) and a high risk of CIAA (median age: 53.2 years).
The authors' conclusions:Ciprofloxacin, a single-dose azithromycin, and ciprofloxacin, a single-dose aminoglycoside, were more effective in the treatment of complicated intra-abdominal abscess. Although the results were based on a single-site intra-abdominal ultrasound examination, the efficacy of Ciprofloxacin in the treatment of complicated intra-abdominal abscess is limited. The most important result is the low risk of CIAA in children with complicated intra-abdominal abscess. The use of a single-dose aminoglycoside may be preferable in patients with complicated intra-abdominal abscess.
