Repeated Urinary Tract Infections Mixed Cold And Heat Syndromes Of Preliminary Studies

Urinary tract infection is a common infection of the urinary tract disease, in some patients easily repeated attack. But over the years, many patients due to the lack of related knowledge, the disease itself has not been much great regarded. And there is also problems in the clinic, such as check-up of laboratory is still not standardized, clinical diagnosis is inaccurate, and the selection and application of antibiotics is irregular, and so on. Which cause or exacerbate the urinary tract infection repeated attack. Thus resulting in many patients paying a lot of medical expenses every year.The Urinary tract infection belong to stranguria in Chinese medicine. Chinese medicine in repeated urinary tract infection treatment has the characteristics of effective, simple, inexpensive and less toxicity, so to launch a Chinese or traditional Chinese with western medicine in the treatment of the urinary tract infection is significant. In the process of treating urinary tract infection, doctors who are paying special attention to the changes of urinary symptoms, and the systemic symptoms are careless observation. And the congnition of the pathogenesis are much more around the kidney deficiency and bladder damp-hot, however, other factors such as the internal and external cold evil is not been given sufficient attention.Under the guidance of the theory of Chinese medicine, our research is a Syndrome research on the repeated urinary tract infection patients, to observe the proportion of simultaneous occurrence of cold and hot symptom in patients with repeated urinary tract infection and its syndrome characteristics. All of the patients included in the study conducted a questionnaire investigation, and use statistical analysis to the result of investigation. We find that, simultaneous occurrence of cold and hot symptom is 73 cases, hot symptom is 27 cases. Statistical analysis by sex, 100 repeated urinary tract infection patients, there are only two cases of male patients, the ratio of male to female is 1:49. Statistical analysis by age, the age group studied is distribute over 23 to 82, and their average age is 56.5±14.7years old. There are only 30 cases under 50-year-old. Therefore, we can conclude that the repeated urinary tract infection is ubiquitous in the group of 50 ~ 79-year-old patients, and the simultaneous occurrence of cold and hot symptom is more common in repeated urinary tract infection patients, especially in 40 ~ 79-year-old patients. Thus reveals that the internal and external cold evil is also one adverse factor which can not be ignored in the occurrence and development process of the repeated urinary tract infection. And through the statistical analysis of symptoms, we can find out the popular symptoms in the repeated urinary tract infection, and the popular cold symptoms in the simultaneous occurrence of cold and hot symptom.
