Cefoperazone-sulbactam and risk of coagulation disorders or bleeding: a retrospective cohort study

ABSTRACT

Objectives: Limited evidence has suggested that cefoperazone-sulbactam causes coagulation disorders and bleeding.

Methods: The authors conducted a retrospective study to compare patients receiving cefoperazone-sulbactam versus those treated with cefoperazone-tazobactam or ceftazidime. Propensity-score matching was used to explore whether treatment with cefoperazone-sulbactam increased the risk of prothrombin time (PT) prolongation, coagulation disorders, and bleeding, or decreased platelets (PLT).

Results: The cohort included 23,242 patients. Among patients receiving cefoperazone-sulbactam, the risk of PT prolongation, coagulation disorders, decreased PLT, and bleeding was 5.3%, 9.2%, 15.7%, and 4.2%, respectively. Propensity-score matching analyses suggested that cefoperazone-sulbactam increased the risk of PT prolongation (aOR 2.26, 95% CI 1.61–3.18), coagulation disorders (aOR 1.81, 95% CI 1.43–2.30), and decreased PLT (aOR 1.46, 95% CI 1.25–1.72), but not increase bleeding (aOR 1.05, 95% CI 0.79–1.40) compared with ceftazidime. Patients receiving cefoperazone-sulbactam had higher risk of PT prolongation (aOR 1.53, 95% CI 1.11–2.10), coagulation disorders (aOR 1.53, 95% CI 1.21–1.95), but not decreased PLT (aOR 0.93, 95% CI 0.81–1.07) or bleeding (aOR 1.11, 95% CI 0.87–1.42), compared with those receiving cefoperazone-tazobactam.

Conclusion: Cefoperazone-sulbactam may be associated with a higher risk of PT prolongation and coagulation disorders compared with cefoperazone-tazobactam and ceftazidime.     

起搏治疗遗传性长QT间期综合征23例

目的:评价VVI起搏治疗遗传性长QT综合征的疗效. 方法:对23例有尖端扭转性室速发作,且经正规药物治疗无效或无法耐受的遗传性长QT综合征患者,植入了VVI起搏器.随访这23例患者术后心电图及心脏事件发生率. 结果:QT间期平均值由术前(638.0±55.7)ms缩短至术后的(471.3±48.9)ms,QTc平均值为由0.627±0.07缩短至0.519±0.06.心脏事件的发生率由术前的(0.353±0.46)次/年降至术后(0.111±0.24)次/年,(P=0.039).其中77.5%的患者随访期间无晕厥或猝死等心脏事件发生.90.91%患者存活.2例患者因尖端扭转性室速恶化为室颤抢救无效死亡. 结论:VVI起搏治疗可以有效地减少长QT综合征患者恶性心律失常的发生,是治疗长QT综合征的重要方法之一.     

前后挤压型骶骨Ⅱ区骨折与骶丛神经损伤的关系

目的 探讨前后挤压致骶骨Ⅱ区骨折造成骶丛神经损伤的机制。方法 经甲醛短期（1年内）浸泡固定的国人尸体6具，12侧。解剖保护骶丛神经，制成前后挤压型暴力致骶Ⅱ区骨折模型，定量测量不同骨折移位时骶丛神经被拉长的距离。另外，利用X线片观察骶从神经受压情况。结果 随耻骨联合分离逐渐增大，骶丛神经张应变呈直线相关逐渐加大，以S1，S4为最显著，且可造成神经的刺伤，多见于L5和S1，X线未发现骶丛神经受压表现。结论 前后挤压型暴力致骶骨Ⅱ区骨折神经损伤以牵拉伤为丰，以S1，S4为主，且与骨折移位程度成正相关关系。神经的刺伤，多见于骨折移位较大的L5和S1。     

髋臼爆裂骨折伴股骨头脱位21例手术治疗体会

目的:通过对21例髋臼爆裂性骨折伴股骨头脱位的手术治疗,探讨处理此类损伤应注意的几个问题。方法:术前 X片及CT片明确骨折及脱位类型,采用患侧扩大的髂股入路或Langenbeck-Kocher入路,显露髂骨内外板及小骨盆内壁、髋臼前后柱,必要时显露坐骨大切迹,保持股骨头于脱位状态,直视下复位各骨折块尽量达到髓关节内软骨面光滑圆弧,在骨折复位状态下行内固定,之后使股骨头复位入髋臼,术后皮牵引,早期锻炼。结果:术后21例随访12～36个月, 骨折均愈合好,髋臼内壁形态光滑,元再脱位或创伤性关节炎症状出现。结论:髋臼爆裂性骨折伴股骨头脱位的病例,早期手术恢复髋臼内壁软骨面光滑圆弧可最大限度的恢复患肢功能,能有效地防止髓关节创伤性关节炎的发生,手术切口的选择是复位成功的关键,同时深静脉栓塞、坐骨神经的损伤及异位骨化的预防应予以重视。
