Importance:
在为尿路感染(UTI)开具抗生素处方前,于病历中记录症状有助于促进抗生素的合理使用。
目的:
本研究的目的是描述在为患有复发性尿路感染的老年女性开具抗生素的诊疗过程中,不同专科记录的症状数量和类型。
Study Design:
我们开展了一项回顾性队列研究,研究对象为年龄在65岁及以上的复发性尿路感染(UTI)女性患者。若患者在6个月内至少接受过两次、或在1年内至少接受过三次针对尿路感染的抗生素治疗,则被纳入研究。提取并比较了不同就诊记录及不同专科之间关于症状数量与类型以及尿培养结果的数据。
结果:
共分析了来自175例患者的454次就诊记录。大多数就诊发生在初级保健科室(61.8%),其次为泌尿科/泌尿妇科(24%)、妇产科(9.2%)以及急诊科/急症诊疗科(4.8%)。不同科室记录的尿路感染特异性症状中位数为1个(四分位间距,0–2),并在后续就诊中呈下降趋势。在所有就诊中,25%未记录任何尿路感染特异性症状,26%记录了1个症状,49%记录了2个或更多症状。在337次培养结果为阳性的就诊中,19%未记录尿路感染特异性症状,9%未记录任何症状。
结论:
在为患有复发性尿路感染的老年患者开具抗生素的诊疗过程中,各专科对泌尿系统症状的记录普遍不足。这一医疗照护上的差距提示可通过改进泌尿系统症状的记录,以提升抗生素管理的质量。

Sputum Studies II: Culture and Sensitivity
Sputum culture and sensitivity is a medical procedure used to diagnose bacterial infections in the respiratory tract and select the most appropriate antibiotics for treatment. This process involves analyzing sputum samples of thick and opaque secretions produced in the lungs and airways. These samples are collected from patients and then sent to the laboratory for analysis.
The test can identify various pathogens responsible for respiratory infections, including Streptococcus,...
