Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of improved therapy-trace intermittent inhalation therapy as the adjuvant treatment for infants and children with severe pneumonia. Methods A total of 148 cases of infants and children with severe pneumonia were randomly divided into test group and control group, each group contained 74 patients. We used trace-intermittent inhalation therapy for the test group and selected the appropriate inhalation time and intermittent time according to children' s age and the degree of choke gasp. In the control group, we used the traditional continuous inhalation method. Breathing, heart rate, oxygen saturation, indicators of blood gas analysis and the extent of choke before and after inhalation were compared. Results The two group showed no differences in breathing, heart rate, oxygen saturation, indicators of blood gas analysis and the degree of choke before inhalation (P > 0. 05) , while significant difference were showed after inhalation (P < 0. 01), and the difference of the choke degree was statistically significant (P < 0. 05). This study showed that the trace-intermittent inhalation treatment was significantly superior to the traditional continuous inhalation treatment (P <0. 01). Conclusions Trace intermittent inhalation therapy can promote the effective oxygen supply of the organization, improve ventilation and oxygenation function and blood gas results in children, relieve the different degrees of choke gasp, shorten the course of disease and improve the therapeutic effect significantly.
