Abstract

OBJECTIVE: The use of antibiotics in burn patients aims topical treatment, systemic prophylaxis or systemic treatment of the burn wounds. In the present study we aimed to compare the demographic characteristics of pediatric burn patients with systemic antibiotic use rate and the effect of antibiotic usage on results.MATERIAL AND METHODS: All burn patients under the age of sixteen patients who were hospitalised between April 1st 2001- December 31st 2012 were enrolled to the study. Patient demographics, cause of burns, total burned body surface area, length of hospitalisation, mortality, the use of systemic antibiotic, the need of surgery, results of blood, wound and urinary cultures were recorded for each patient.RESULTS: A total of 1268 patienst were enrolled to the study. Mean age was 4,41 ± 3,89 years. M/F ratio was 738/530 (58,2% Male, 41,8% Female). Mean total burned body surface area was 12,2 ±10,8 and mean time of hospitalization was 13,9±16,0 days. The most common cause of burn was scald burns in 255 (81,7%) of the patients. Systemic antibiotics were started in 255 (20,1 %) patients and overall mortality was 2,3%.CONCLUSION: The use of prophylactic antibiotics in burn children with no signs of systemic or local infection; is not a part of our treatment algorythm. When we compared the mortality and complşications with antibiotic use; we suggest that teh use of prophylactic antibiotics in burn children is not essential

Özet

AMAÇ: Yanık hastalarında antibiyotik kullanımı yara üzerine topikal, sistemik proflaktik veya sistemik tedavi amacıyla olmaktadır. Bu çalışmada merkezimizdeki çocuk yanık hastalarının demografik bulgularını, sistemik tedavi amaçlı antibiyotik kullanım oranlarını ve antibiyotik kullanılan ve kullanılmayan hastaların sonuçlarını karşılaştırmayı amaçladık.GEREÇ VE YÖNTEMLER: Çalışmaya 1 Nisan 2001 ile 31 Aralık 2012 tarihleri arasında 16 yaş ve altı yatarak tedavi edilen hastalar çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. Hastaların cinsiyeti, yanık nedenleri, ortalama yanık yüzey alanları, hastanede kalış süreleri, mortalite, antibiyotik kullanımları, operasyon varlığı, yara, kan ve idrar kültür sonuçları kayıt altına alındı.BULGULAR: Çalışma süresince 1268 hastanın yatarak tedavi aldığı tespit edildi. Hastaların ortalama yaşı 4,41 ± 3,89 yıldı, bu hastaların 738/1268 (%58,2)'i erkek, 530/1268 (%41,8)'u kızdı. Yatırılarak tedavi edilen hastaların ortalama yanık yüzdeleri %12,2 ±10,8 iken ortalama hastanede kalış süresi 13,9±16,0 gün olarak bulundu. Hastalarda rastlanan en sık yakıcı ajan sıcak sıvı (%81,7) olarak bulunmuştur. Kliniğimizde 255/1268 (%20,1) hastanın tedavisi sürecinde sistemik tedavi amaçlı antibiyotik kullanılmıştır. Hastalarda mortalite 29/1268 (%2,3) olarak tespit edilmiştir.SONUÇ: Kliniğimizin yanık tedavi algoritmasında sistemik veya lokal enfeksiyon bulguları olmayan hastalarda profilaktik sistemik antibiyotik kullanılmamaktadır. Bulgularımıza göre profilaktik antibiyotik kullanımı olmadan elde edilen sonuçların oldukça kabul edilebilir olduğu kanısındayız
