Abstract

Objective:To investigate the effective treatment method of mycoplasmal pneumonia and to choose antibiotics reasonably.Methods:Clinical data of 52 cases with mycoplasmal pneumonia from January 2009 to December 2010 were collected and arranged,which were retrospectively analyzed.There were 22 cases in Azithromycin group,30 cases in Levofloxacin group.The clinical curative effect of Azithromycin and Levofloxacin were analyzed.Results:The drug resistance of Azithromycin was increased,temperature of Azithromycin group was decreased slowly,and temperature of Levofloxacin group was decreased significantly,there was a statistically significant difference of the temperature between the two groups(P0.05).The total effective rate of lung imaging absorption of Azithromycin group was 63.64%,which of Levofloxacin group was 100.00%,there was a statistically significant difference(χ2=15.432,P0.01).Conclusion:Clinical effect of mycoplasmal pneumonia in the treatment with Levofloxacin is better than Azithromycin,it is worthy of promotion in clinic.
