Objective: To summarize clinical experience of red man syndrome in anti-infective therapy after cardiac surgery. Methods: The data of red man syndrome in anti-infective therapy after cardiac surgery from January 2013 to August 2020 were retrospectively collected from Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital for study. Clinical characteristics and factors influencing the occurrence of red man syndrome were analyzed. Results: In anti-infecive therapy after cardiac surgery, there were totally 6 patients with red man syndrome, of whom 4 developed the syndrome during the treatment course of vancomycin or after application of the drug, one developed the syndrome induced by teicoplanin after using the drug for 23 days and 5 days after drug withdrawal, and one occurred following application of cephalosporins for 13 days. With effective treatment, all the 6 patients recovered and were discharged from hospital. Conclusion: Red man syndrome is quite common in the process of anti-infective therapy after cardiac surgery, which is mostly caused by vancomycin allergy. Early manifestations are local red rash, papule or maculopapular rash, with itching. If not actively treated, rash can spread to all parts of the body, or even cause shock with critical conditions. Early attention and active salvage measures could help patients to be out of danger. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
