Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
We will enroll those patients that have received intracranial surgery and admitted to neurosurgical ICU. After obtaining the consent, we will give them prophylactic drugs for 7 days within 24 hours. They are randomly allocated to 2 groups. Group I: esomeprazole 40 mg qd from NG route or orally; Group II: famotidine 20 mg iv bolus q12h. We will monitor the following data: Glasgow coma scale, APACHE II score, CBC, CXR, stool character and OB test, NG aspirate. If clinical evidence of UGI bleeding occurs, endoscopy will be performed. We define the end point as overt bleeding, death or transfer out of ICU. We will compare the prevalence of UGI bleeding and nosocomial pneumonia in these 2 groups.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
2. grouping \& intervention: The patients are randomized to 2 groups. 1st group:receiving esomeprazole 40 mg qd via NG; 2nd group: receiving famotidine 20 mg iv bolus q12h. These medication are used for 7 days. Estimated enrolled number is 60 for each group
3. monitoring: Glasgow coma scale , APACHE II score at baseline, CBC、CXR at basleine and qod, stool OB q3d，NG drainage、sputum、 stool character, ICU routine （TPR, BP）, ICU admitted day, 30 day mortality rate. UGI endoscopy arranged according judgement of attending doctors
4. end points: overt UGI bleeding（tarry stool,hematemesis、coffee ground substance from NG more than 60 ml, Hb decrease more than 2g/dl and endoscopic proof of bleeder）. ventilator associated pneumonia: new onset and persisted hazziness in CXR, combined with fever, leucocytosis and positive sputum smear finding.
5. statistics: the prevalence of overt bleeding and ventilator associated pneumonia is examined by Fisher's exact test, the demongraphic data and disease severity data are examined by student's t test or Chi-square test。
