Community-Acquired Pneumonia Clinical Trial
Official title:
COMPARISON OF CLINICAL EFFICACY OF COMBINATION Amoxycillin Plus Clavulanic Acid and Oxacillin Plus Ceftriaxone for HOSPITAL TREATMENT OF COMMUNITY Acquired PNEUMONIA IN CHILDREN : A Randomized Clinical Study
Objective: To compare the clinical effectiveness and hospital costs, the initial empirical
treatment, Oxacillin / Ceftriaxone and Amoxicillin / Clavulanate in children with Community
Acquired Pneumonia (CAP) severe.
Methods: Clinical prospective randomized study in children aged two months to five years of
age with a diagnosis of severe CAP, according to criteria of World Health Organization
(WHO), admitted to the Pediatrics Ward of the Hospital of the Medical School of Botucatu-
UNESP. We excluded children with comorbid disorders (primary and secondary immunodeficiency)
with acute or chronic kidney disease, referred patients receiving antibiotics proposal and
history of allergy to antibiotics proposed. We included 104 children who were randomized
into two groups to receive: Oxacillin / Ceftriaxone IV (GCO, n = 48) and Amoxicillin /
Clavulanate IV (GAA, n = 56). Patients of the GAA, after clinical improvement, has been
receiving the same oral antibiotic, and maintaining clinical stability, were discharged from
hospital, the GOC received any IV treatment. The outcomes analyzed were time to clinical
improvement (fever and tachypnea), duration of oxygen therapy, hospitalization time, need to
expand the antimicrobial spectrum progression to pleural effusion / empyema (DP / E) and
hospital costs. Treatment failure was determined by the need to expand the antimicrobial
spectrum after 48 hours of hospitalization.
