To report the effect of sublingual atropine sulfate to treat drooling in children with cerebral palsy by comparing the results of the Drooling Impact Scale in a non-controlled open clinical trial.
Twenty-five children were assessed. The difference in the mean scores of the pre- and post-treatment scales reached statistical significance. There was a low frequency of side effects compared to studies with other anticholinergics.
The use of sublingual atropine sulfate seems to be safe and there is a reduction in the Drooling Impact Scale score, which suggests efficacy in the treatment of drooling in children and adolescents with cerebral palsy. Our results should be replicated in randomized, placebo-controlled studies with larger numbers of participants.
在一项非对照开放性临床试验中,通过比较流涎影响量表的结果,报告硫酸阿托品舌下含服治疗脑瘫患儿流涎的效果。
对25名儿童进行了评估。治疗前后量表平均得分的差异具有统计学意义。与其他抗胆碱能药物的研究相比,副作用发生率较低。
硫酸阿托品舌下含服似乎是安全的,流涎影响量表得分有所降低,这表明其对治疗脑瘫儿童和青少年的流涎有效。我们的结果应在更大样本量的随机、安慰剂对照研究中得到重复验证。
