[CHARACTERISTIC OF ANTIBIOTIC-ASSOCIATED DIARRHEA IN PATIENTS WITH ACUTE CEREBRAL CIRCULATION DISORDER]
Abstract:
This full-design study included patients admitted to the Regional Vascular Centre in 2013 and was aimed to obtain more detailed information on the need for medical aid, indications for antibacterial therapy and the spectrum of the drugs being prescribed 42 patients presented with antibiotic-associated diarrhea caused by Clostridium difficile. The composition of antibiotics used for mono- and combined therapy was analysed, details of the clinical picture are described, the importance of timely diagnostics and adequate treatment is emphasized.
