INTRODUCTION: infections (CDI) continue to pose a challenge for clinicians. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is an effective treatment option in CDI. Furthermore, recent and ongoing studies suggest potential benefits of FMT in other diseases as well. METHODS: We would like to present a novel protocol for encapsulation of lyophilized fecal material. Our method provides with better compliance as well as improved flexibility, storage and safety. RESULTS: FMT was conducted in 28 patients with an overall success rate of 82,14% using apsules containing lyophilized stool. 16 of patients were given capsules with lessened bacteria counts. The success rate in this group was 93,75%. DISCUSSION: The results highlight the still unanswered questions about the mechanism of action and contribute to a wider use of FMT in the clinical praxis and in research.
介绍:感染(CDI)仍然对临床医生构成挑战。粪便微生物群移植(FMT)是 CDI 的一种有效治疗选择。此外,最近和正在进行的研究表明,FMT 在其他疾病中也具有潜在的益处。
方法:我们想提出一种新的冷冻干燥粪便材料包封方案。我们的方法具有更好的顺应性以及更高的灵活性、存储和安全性。
结果:使用含有冻干粪便的胶囊进行了 28 例患者的 FMT,总体成功率为 82.14%。其中 16 例患者给予细菌计数减少的胶囊,成功率为 93.75%。
讨论:这些结果强调了关于作用机制的一些尚未解决的问题,并有助于更广泛地将 FMT 应用于临床实践和研究中。
