[Abstract] Objective To evaluate an effective way to clinical prevention of invasive fungal infection. Methods In a non-randomized concurrent control trial, 84 cases of acute leukemia patients who meet the test standard were divided into experimental and control group. Experimental group was given itraconazole in a dose of 200mg once a day for 15 days; control group was given fluconazole in a dose of 150mg once a day for 15 days, to prevent fungal infections. Results Before and after prevention, the ALT, total bilirubin and serum creatinine of experimental and control group, there was a significant diference between the two groups(P<0.05).The rate of fungal infection(confirmed, clinical and suspected diagnosis) in experimental group was 19.0%, and 40.5% in control group; the rate of fungal infection(confirmed and clinical diagnosis) in experimental group was 14.3%, and 33.3% in control group, there was a significant difference between the two groups(P<0.05). The incidence of ECG abnormalities in experimental group was 9.5%, and 4.8% in control group, there was not a significant difference between the two groups(P>0.05). Conclusions Itraconazole to prevent fungal infection was more superior than fluconazole and was safe and reliable. |
