Abstract:
Objective To observe the change of health status of acute ammonia intoxication patients after treatment in one year.
Methods Eight cases of acute ammonia intoxication patients were selected at random, among them 5 cases were diagnosed as light, 2 cases as middle, and 1 case as severe intoxication. We tracked the patients' clinic symptoms, signs and laboratory tests in half year and one year after they were cured.
Results One patient in the 5 light acute ammonia intoxication patients had upper respiratory tract infection once in half year. The 2 middle degree intoxication patients had upper respiratory infection five times in first half year, and had the same infection three times in later half year. The severe patient had upper respiratory infection four times in first half year and sometimes complicated with pneumonia. He had the same illness two times in later half year, but the symptoms became lighter.
Conclusion The acute ammonia intoxication patients' immune function gradually came down, easy to get respiratory infection, even after a long period. With the intoxication degree severer, they were easier to get infected or even sufferd from pneumonia.
