In the past six months, he had repeated high fever and went to the county hospital for medical treatment, and at first he used cefoperazone sulbactam sodium, and later he used meloxicillin sodium.  For elderly people with cerebrovascular disease who are bedridden for a long time, the most important thing to control infection is to drain the sputum in addition to using effective antibiotics. If the patient does not cough up sputum, the treatment is often ineffective.
