Risk of Pseudogallstones and Biliary Complications in Rehabilitation Patients Administered Ceftriaxone: A Retrospective Study

This study identified a significant incidence of pseudogallstones and biliary complications associated with ceftriaxone administration, particularly in elderly patients, patients with immobility, and those with renal impairment. By using ceftriaxone in appropriate patients, the number of patients with biliary tract infections transferred from rehabilitation hospitals to acute-care hospitals can be reduced by 18.2%, thereby improving patient outcomes in rehabilitation settings.
