To respond to shortage of pilocarpine discs due to CE-licensing problems a pharmacy compounded pilocarpine HCL solution was developed and validated for use in CF diagnosis. The aim of this study was to compare the results from a pharmacy compounded pilocarpine HCL solution versus Pilogel® discs for the measurements of sweat chloride concentrations. Ten pediatric and adult patients with CF underwent a sweat test using both Pilogel® discs and pilocarpine HCL solution. The average difference between both methods was -3.25 mmol/L (95% Limits of Agreement: -7.19 [95% CI: -9.19;-5.19] and 0.69 [95% CI: -1.31;2.69] mmol/L. Passing-Bablok regression showed that zero was enclosed with the 95% CI of the calculated intercept (0.15 [95% CI: -1.70;1.42] mmol/L). These data show a good agreement in chloride concentrations obtained using the two pilocarpine products. Therefore, the pharmacy compounded pilocarpine HCL solution can be used as an alternative for Pilogel® discs during times of shortage.
为应对因 CE 认证问题导致的毛果芸香碱片短缺,一家药店配制了盐酸毛果芸香碱溶液,并对其在 CF 诊断中的应用进行了验证。本研究旨在比较药店配制的盐酸毛果芸香碱溶液与 Pilogel®片在测量汗液氯化物浓度方面的结果。10 名儿科和成年 CF 患者同时使用 Pilogel®片和盐酸毛果芸香碱溶液进行了汗液测试。两种方法的平均差异为-3.25mmol/L(95%可信区间:-7.19 [95% CI:-9.19;-5.19] 和 0.69 [95% CI:-1.31;2.69] mmol/L。Passing-Bablok 回归显示,计算出的截距 95%可信区间内包含零(0.15 [95% CI:-1.70;1.42] mmol/L)。这些数据表明,使用两种毛果芸香碱产品获得的氯化物浓度具有良好的一致性。因此,在 Pilogel®片短缺期间,药店配制的盐酸毛果芸香碱溶液可以作为替代产品。
