Objectives: Community acquired pneumonia (CAP) is considered to be the commonest reason for hospitalization among children. Pneumonia is the leading cause of mortality among children in Pakistan in children, causing 33% of all deaths in infants and 37% of all deaths in children 1 to 4 years. The aim of current study was to compare efficacy of amoxicillin-clavulanic acid versus ceftriaxone among children under 5 years of age, hospitalized having uncomplicated CAP. Study Design: Randomized Controlled trial (RCT). Setting: Department of Pediatric Medicine, The Children Hospital and Institute of Child Health, Lahore. Period: 01/01/2019 to 30/06/2019. Material & Methods: A total of 210 (105 in each group) children aged between 2 to 60 months, diagnosed having CAP were randomly allocated into either Group-A (received IV amoxicillin-clavulanic acid) or Group B (received IV ceftriaxone). Efficacy in terms of response of both treatment groups was noted after 5 days treatment. Results: Overall, mean age was noted as 14.68±15.7 months. Majority (n=131, 32.4%) were male and aged between 1 to 12 months (n=135, 64.3%). Mean duration of symptoms was noted as 3.60±1.69 days. Efficacy was significantly higher in children treated with ceftriaxone as compared to those treated with Amoxicillin/Clavulanic acid (96.2% vs. 76.2%; p<0.001). This difference was significant across all age, gender and duration of symptom groups (p<0.05). Conclusion: The efficacy was significantly higher in children treated with ceftriaxone as compared to Amoxicillin/Clavulanic acid.

The purpose of this non-random retrospective cohort study was to evaluate the impact of prophylactic antibiotic on early outcomes including postoperative pain, swelling, bleeding and cyanosis in patients undergoing dental implant placement before prosthetic loading. Seventy-five patients (45 males, 30 females) whose dental implant placement were completed, included to the study. Patients used prophylactic antibiotics were defined as the experimental group and those who did not, were defined as the control group. The experimental group received 2 g amoxicillin + clavulanic acid 1 h preoperatively and 1 g amoxicillin + clavulanic acid twice a day for 5 days postoperatively while the control group had received no prophylactic antibiotic therapy perioperatively. Data on pain, swelling, bleeding, cyanosis, flap dehiscence, suppuration and implant failure were analyzed on postoperative days 2, 7, and 14 and week 12. No statistically significant difference was detected between the two groups with regard to pain and swelling on postoperative days 2, 7, and 14 and week 12 ( p &gt;0.05), while the severity of pain and swelling were greater on day 2 compared to day 7 and 14 and week 12 in both groups ( p =0.001 and p &lt;0.05, respectively). Similarly, no significant difference was found between the two groups with regard to postoperative bleeding and cyanosis. Although flap dehiscence was more severe on day 7 in the experimental group, no significant difference was found between the two groups with regard to the percentage of flap dehiscence assessed at other time points. Within limitations of the study, it has been demonstrated that antibiotic use has no effect on implant failure rates in dental implant surgery with a limited number of implants. We conclude that perioperative antibiotic use may not be required in straightforward implant placement procedures. Further randomized control clinical studies with higher numbers of patients and implants are needed to substantiate our findings.
