Intravenous Immuneglobulin in the Treatment of Severe Burn Infection in Children
Objective: To summarize the experience of intravenous immuneglobulin (IVIG) in the treatment of children with severe burn infection. Methods: Clinical data of 24 hospitalized children with severe burn infection from 2011 to 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the application of IVIG treatment
all patients were divided into 14 cases in the IVIG group and 10 cases in the control group. The routine blood test
liver and kidney function
C-reactive protein (CRP)
procalcitonin (PCT)
bacterial
fungal and blood culture of wound surface of two groups were compared and analyzed. Results: All cases were second degree burn
there was no significant difference between two groups in the age
body mass and burn area (P>0.05). Before treatment
the temperature and CRP levels in the IVIG group were significantly higher than those of the control group (P<0.05)
yet there was no statistically significant difference in WBC
neutrophil ratio
platelet count
and PCT compared with the control group (P>0.05). After treatment
the body temperature
CRP and PCT levels in the IVIG group were lower than those before treatment (P<0.05). Conclusion: Children with burns of the same area and depth may have inflammatory reactions to different degrees of burn. IVIG can effectively improve the infection symptoms of severe burn and reduce the inflammatory index.
