OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of ulinastatin combined with creatine phosphate sodium and ribavirin combined with creatine phosphate sodium in the treatment of pediatric viral myocarditis.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: 155 children with viral myocarditis in the Xuzhou Children’s Hospital, were retrospectively analyzed. 80 of them received ulinastatin combined with creatine phosphate sodium, and were regarded as observation group; other 75 patients received ribavirin combined with creatine phosphate sodium and were regarded as the control group. The therapeutic efficacy of the two groups was observed, the improved condition of myocardial enzyme indicator and myocardial troponin I (cTn I) in the two groups were compared before and after the treatment.
RESULTS: The total effective rates of the patients in the observation group and the control group were 93.75% and 76.00%, respectively. The clinical efficacy of the observation group was better than that of the control group (p<0.05). The electrocardiogram improvement condition of the observation group was better than that of the control group (p<0.05); after the treatment, the expression levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), Creatine Kinase (CK-MB), and cTn I in the observation group were (313.37±9.42) U/L, (29.38±4.97) U/L, (23.67±2.89) U/L, (0.12±0.02) μg/L, respectively. The expression levels of LDH, AST, CK-MB, and cTn I in the control group were (322.43±12.32) U/L, (33.43±5.14) U/L, (26.22±3.37) U/L, (0.24±0.04) μg/L. The levels of myocardial enzyme and cTn I in the observation group and the control group after the treatment were lower than that before the treatment (p<0.05), while the level of myocardial enzyme and cTn I in the observation group after the treatment was significantly lower than that in the control group (p<0.05).
CONCLUSIONS: The results indicated that, compared with ribavirin combined with creatine phosphate sodium, ulinastatin combined with creatine phosphate sodium had better clinical efficacy in the treatment of pediatric viral myocarditis. It could significantly improve the level of myocardial enzyme indicator and cTn I, and had certain clinical and promotional values and application values.
