在COVID-19患者中使用皮质类固醇会增加血流感染的风险,特别是在较高剂量的德甲时. 男性性别和入院白细胞瘤也是这些感染的重要危险因素.
科学领域:
- 传染性疾病 传染性疾病
- 关键护理医学 关键护理医学
- 药理学 药理学是指药理学的学科.
背景情况:
- 皮质类固醇是COVID-19的标准,因为高炎症.
- 鼻腔血流感染 (NBSI) 是住院COVID-19患者的一种严重并发症.
- 了解风险因素,包括使用皮质类固醇,对于预防至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 在住院COVID-19患者中识别NBSI的风险因素.
- 为了研究皮质类固醇剂量/持续时间和NBSIs之间的关联.
- 为COVID-19患者的临床管理策略提供信息.
主要方法:
- 对252名住院COVID-19患者进行了回顾性队列研究.
- 单变量和多变量分析以确定NBSI的风险因素.
- 评估人口,临床和治疗参数.
主要成果:
- 19%的患者患上了NBSI,死亡率为62.5%.
- 显著的NBSI预测因素包括男性性别,甲基普雷迪尼索隆使用,每天6-12毫克的德克萨米他等效剂量和入院白细胞瘤.
- 较高的德克萨米他剂量与增加NBSI风险密切相关.
结论:
- 男性性别和入院白细胞瘤是COVID-19中NBSI的未经修改的风险因素.
- 甲基普雷迪尼索隆的使用和累积德克萨米他剂量是NBSI的调整后风险变量.
- 这些发现凸显了在COVID-19患者中仔细监测皮质类固醇治疗的必要性,以减轻感染风险.
