A randomised, double-blind study of adults with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) resulted in clinical cure rates of 90.0% for telithromycin and 94.2% for trovafloxacin. Bacteriological eradication rates were also comparable for both treatments. All high-risk patients (i.e. > or = 65 years old
Gatifloxacin is an advanced-generation fluoroquinolone with demonstrated efficacy and safety as therapy for community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). As part of a phase IV postmarketing surveillance program (TeqCES), 136 outpatients with CAP whose sputum was culture-positive for Streptococcus pneumoniae
In a double-blind, multicenter trial, 502 patients hospitalized with community-acquired pneumonia were randomized to receive therapy with either ertapenem or ceftriaxone (for each, 1 g given intravenously once daily). After a minimum of 3 days, therapy could be switched to oral
The efficacy and safety of grepafloxacin in treating patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) was assessed in an open-label, noncomparative study. Patients (N = 273) received grepafloxacin 600 mg QD for 10 days. A total of 237 patients (87%) completed the study. In assessable patients, the
Aerodigestive adverse effects (AD-AE) during intravenous pentamidine (IV-P) infusion for Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia prophylaxis are uncommon in retrospective chart review studies. We conducted a survey in patients on IV-P, which included 31 specific questions. Twenty-five patients were included
The efficacy and safety of 500 mg clarithromycin and 1000 mg josamycin both given twice daily for a maximum of 14 days were compared in the treatment of 72 hospitalized patients with bacterial pneumonia. The predominant pathogens isolated were Streptococcus pneumoniae and Staphylococcus aureus.
In the first evaluation of an uncontrolled multicenter study on inhalative pentamidine prophylaxis (300 mg pentamidine-isethionate monthly) of pneumocystis carinii pneumonia in immunocompromised patients, 48 patients (all 48 patients HIV1-infected, 36 without preceding pneumocystis carinii pneumonia
We studied the clinical efficacy of ofloxacin (OFLX) in the treatment of 13 cases of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia. OFLX was given to each patient orally at 200 mg/dose, 3 doses daily. One case was excluded because of a side effect i.e., nausea. In 12 evaluable cases, the clinical efficacy rate
The use of cefaclor advanced formulation (cefaclor AF) in the treatment of pneumonia caused by susceptible organisms was investigated in a multi-center trial conducted in the United Kingdom and the United States. A total of 266 patients were enrolled in this double-blind, double-dummy, randomized,

Barium contrast radiography is a conventional procedure aimed at revealing lesions of the alimentary tract using barium sulfate on X-ray irradiation. Although it is widely used in clinics, adverse effects and complications are observed, such as anaphylaxis, granuloma, fecalithes, abdomen-leaking,
Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is common in patients after craniotomy and may lead to severe postoperative complications. The aim of this study was to identify risk factors and postoperative complications associated with PONV in the context of perioperative high-dose Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a common complaint after strabismus surgery that leads to unpleasantness, increased hospitalisation time and increased costs. In severe cases, it can lead to dehydration, electrolyte disturbances, aspiration, pneumonia, and even sutures
