About this study

An observational study was designed to research the bacteriology and pathogen drug sensitivity of chronic dacryocystitis in China and optimize antibiotic therapy.

Read the detailed description

For patients diagnosed with chronic dacryocystitis,we will collect the secretions after lacrimal passage irrigation, note the characters of the secretions and send the secretions for bacteria culture, analysis and pathogen drug sensitivity.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • bacterial culture and analysisDiagnostic test

    Also called antibiotic susceptibility

    Specimens were collected with soft-tipped applicators of sterile cotton swabs after syphilis of lacrimal passages.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Bacterial agents

    Specimens will be collected after irrigation of the lacrimal passage and be sent for bacterial culture and bacterial analysis.

    Measured: 2 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Sensitivity test

    The drugs tested include Penicilin, Amikacin, Azithromycin, Cefoxitin, Levofloxacin,Ofloxacin, Cefuroxime and Tobramycin.

    Measured: 2 weeks

  2. The colour of lacrimal sac secretion

    The colour of lacrimal sac secretion will be identified by the doctor during the irrigation of the lacrimal passage.

    Measured: 2 weeks

  3. The character of lacrimal sac secretion

    The lacrimal sac secretion will be classified as mucus or pus.

    Measured: 2 weeks
