概括
对喉疼痛儿童的抗生素处方仍然很高,超过了A组β-溶血性链球菌 (GABHS) 的患病率. 虽然GABHS测试可以在特定情况下减少抗生素的使用,但它在儿科护理中未得到充分利用.
科学领域:
- 儿科 儿科 儿科
- 传染性疾病 传染性疾病
- 临床实践指南 临床实践指南
背景情况:
- 甲组β-溶血性链球菌 (GABHS) 导致15-36%的儿科喉痛.
- 在处方抗生素之前对儿童进行GABHS测试,建议儿童患有喉炎.
- 建议用于GABHS的抗生素包括青素,阿莫西西林,红红素和第一代胞素.
研究的目的:
- 测量患有喉疼痛的儿童的抗生素处方和GABHS测试率.
- 评估GABHS测试与抗生素治疗决策之间的关联.
主要方法:
- 从国家门诊医疗保健调查和国家医院门诊医疗保健调查 (1995-2003) 的数据分析.
- 包括3至17岁的喉疼痛儿童的访问.
- 检查了抗生素处方,推/不推的抗生素使用和GABHS测试的全国率.
主要成果:
- 在每年730万次喉痛诊所中,有53%的患者被处方了抗生素.
- 在接受抗生素治疗的儿童中,27%的儿童服用了非推的抗生素.
- 在53%的访问中进行了GABHS测试,并且与特定诊断 (喉炎,桃体炎,链球菌喉炎) 的抗生素处方率较低有关.
结论:
- 针对儿科喉痛的抗生素处方超过了GABHS预期的流行率.
- 从1995年到2003年,抗生素处方的减少是由于减少了推药物的使用.
- 尽管它与某些儿科病例的抗生素处方减少有关,但GABHS测试仍未得到充分利用.

Acute Pharyngitis
Introduction
Acute pharyngitis is the inflammation of the back of the throat (pharynx), commonly resulting in a sore throat. It is a frequently encountered condition that prompts individuals to seek medical advice.
Classification
Acute pharyngitis can be categorized based on its underlying cause:

Classification
Acute pharyngitis can be categorized based on its underlying cause:
Chronic Pharyngitis
Chronic pharyngitis refers to persistent inflammation of the pharyngial mucosa.
Etiology
It often arises from persistent viral or bacterial infections affecting sinuses and tonsils.
Additional contributing factors include inadequate dental hygiene, mouth breathing, recurring tonsillitis, allergic rhinitis, laryngopharyngeal reflux, and exposure to smoke, chemicals, and other environmental pollutants. Allergic reactions to pollen, mold, and pet dander, chronic cough, excessive voice usage,...

Tonsillitis I: Introduction
Tonsillitis is inflammation of the tonsils, which are two lymphoid tissue masses at the back of the throat. This condition can cause discomfort and irritation in the throat.
Etiology
Three primary contributing factors have been identified.

Tonsillitis II: Management
This lesson will focus on the different treatment options for managing tonsillitis, which typically depend on the cause and severity.
Pneumonia IV: Management
The treatment of pneumonia varies based on its severity and the causative pathogen. Here is a structured approach to managing pneumonia, integrating pharmaceutical and supportive care strategies.
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:

Acute Pyelonephritis II: Diagnostic Studies and Management
Introduction:For diagnosing acute pyelonephritis, a comprehensive patient history is collected to identify symptoms such as dysuria, frequent or urgent urination, flank pain, or costovertebral angle (CVA) tenderness that may suggest a kidney infection.Physical ExaminationDuring the physical examination, CVA tenderness is assessed. This involves gentle percussion over the costovertebral angle, where tenderness often indicates a kidney infection.Diagnostic TestsUrinalysis: Used to identify white...
