[The influence of ozone therapy to some immunological parameters in patients with generalized peritonitis]
Abstract:
The immune status of the surgical treatment of 103 patients with generalized peritonitis (GP) were discussed. Patients were divided into two groups. Comparison group included 60 patients who received conventional combined therapy, main group - 43 patients, who, along with the standard complex treatment measures, were used local and systemic intravenous ozone therapy (OT). The severity state of patients evaluated by Mannheim peritoneal index (MPI). To assess the immune status in blood of the patients with GP were studied the level of lymphocyte subpopulations (CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, CD11a+, CD19+), the phagocytic activity of neutrophilic granulocytes, concentration of immunoglobulin A, M, G, and the content of circulating immune complexes (CIC). Studies have shown that GP is accompanied by changes in the functioning of the immune system, the severity and extent of which depends on the severity of MPI. The conventional basic therapy is not effective in correcting of these disturbances. Using the local and systemic OT in the complex of therapeutic measures in individually selected patients with GP have a positive effect on some level of immunity with a tendency to restore the immune system dysfunction.

Bacterial Pneumonia Treatment
For bacterial pneumonia, antibiotics serve as the cornerstone of therapy. Initial treatment often begins with empirical antibiotics, tailored to the anticipated causative organism and adjusted based on culture results. Key antibiotic choices include:
Transmission-based Precautions II: Airborne and Protective Environment
Airborne precautions:
Use airborne precautions when treating patients known or suspected to have diseases that spread through the air—for example, tuberculosis or measles. These organisms are present in smaller droplets expelled by an infected person and...
