本研究采用前瞻性、开放性、随机对照的方法,观察头孢克洛与阿奇霉素治疗急性中耳炎(AOM)的细菌学疗效。在入组研究时和开始治疗后3 - 4天进行鼓室穿刺术。两种药物治疗3 - 4天后,细菌学失败发生在培养阳性患者中的比例很高,特别是那些由流感嗜血杆菌引起的AOM患者(阿奇霉素治疗组33例中有16例[53%],头孢克洛治疗组34例中有13例[52%])。虽然可以证明肺炎链球菌的病原体持续存在与相应药物MIC增加的明确相关性,但在E-I中未发现此类相关性。流感。提出了H.流感嗜血杆菌引起的AOM,应大大低于目前的头孢克洛和阿奇霉素。流感。
A prospective, open-label, randomized study was conducted in order to determine the bacteriologic efficacies of cefaclor and azithromycin in acute otitis media (AOM). Tympanocentesis was performed on entry into the study and 3 to 4 days after initiation of treatment. Bacteriologic failure after 3 to 4 days of treatment with both drugs occurred in a high proportion of culture-positive patients, especially in those in whom AOM was caused by Haemophilus influenzae (16 of 33 [53%] of those treated with azithromycin and 13 of 34 [52%] of those treated with cefaclor). Although a clear correlation of the persistence of the pathogen with increased MICs of the respective drugs could be demonstrated for Streptococcus pneumoniae, no such correlation was found for E-I. influenzae. It is proposed that susceptibility breakpoints for H. influenzae should be considerably lower than the current ones for both cefaclor and azithromycin for AOM caused by H. influenzae.
