Abstract

To assess the effects of pre-admission antibiotics on the accuracy of bacterial diagnosis in pyogenic meningitis, the case records of 154 patients admitted to an infectious diseases unit during a 10-year period (1966-1975) were reviewed. The causative organism was identified in 140 patients (91%). Although 63 patients had received antibiotics before admission, a bacteriological diagnosis was still possible in 57 of these (90%).

摘要

为评估入院前使用抗生素对化脓性脑膜炎细菌诊断准确性的影响，我们回顾了1966年至1975年这10年间收治于传染病科的154例患者的病历。140例患者（91%）明确了病原体。尽管63例患者在入院前接受过抗生素治疗，但其中57例（90%）仍有可能做出细菌学诊断。
