Others
NO
To investigate the impact of discontinuation of erythromycin or switching to another macrolide due to erythromycin supply interruption on bronchiectasis exacerbations in patients with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis who had received erythromycin for at least 12 months.
Others
To explore the clinical characteristics associated with bronchiectasis exacerbations after discontinuation of erythromycin and the patient characteristics associated with switching from erythromycin to another macrolide.
Furthermore, in patients who switched from erythromycin to clarithromycin, the number of bronchiectasis exacerbations before and after the switch will be compared to explore the potential clinical effectiveness of long-term low-dose clarithromycin therapy.
Others
Others
Not applicable
Number of bronchiectasis exacerbations during the 12 months before and after treatment modification in patients who had received erythromycin for at least 12 months, comparing those who discontinued erythromycin with those who switched to another macrolide.
1.Time to the first bronchiectasis exacerbation within 12 months before and after treatment modification among patients who had received erythromycin for at least 12 months, comparing the erythromycin discontinuation group with the group switched to another macrolide
2.Number of bronchiectasis exacerbations during the 12 months before and after treatment modification, comparing the erythromycin discontinuation group with the group switched to clarithromycin
Observational
| 20 | years-old | <= |
| Not applicable |
Male and Female
1.Age 20 years or older.
2.Diagnosis of non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis.
3.Treatment with erythromycin for at least 3 months.
4.Discontinuation of erythromycin or switching to another macrolide due to erythromycin supply interruption between July 2024 and August 2025.
1.Patients who discontinued or changed erythromycin for reasons other than erythromycin supply interruption.
2.Patients receiving long-term antimicrobial therapy for an indication other than bronchiectasis.
3.Patients with less than 3 months of follow-up after erythromycin discontinuation or switching.
