Abstract:
Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of the combination of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine for pediatric mycoplasma pneumonia (accumulation of phlegm-heat syndrome).Methods Consecutive 116 children treated for mycoplasma pneumonia ( accumulation of phlegm-heat syndrome ) were randomly divided into the two groups by software:the treatment group(58 cases) and control group(58 cases).The control group accepted the sequential therapy of azithromycin ,and the treatment group accepted azithromycin sequential therapy ,in combina-tion with traditional Chinese decoction Wuhu Tingli Dazao Xiefei Tangand Chinese medicine iontophoresis thera-py.Clinical indicators were observed:antifebrile time,lung sound disappearing time,cough disappearing time,lung inflammation (X-ray) disappearing time.Results Antifebrile time[(2.4 ±0.5)d vs (4.2 ±0.6)d,t=3.221,P<0.05],lung sound disappearing time [(5.2 ±0.7)d vs (7.6 ±1.1)d,t=3.514,P<0.05],cough disappearing time [(9.4 ±1.6) d vs (11.7 ±2.1) d,t =3.661,P<0.05)] and lung inflammation ( X-ray) disappearing time [(13.2 ±2.3)d vs (15.5 ±2.5)d,t=3.101,P<0.05)] in the treatment group were shorter than those of the con-trol group;Hospital stays [(6.3 ±1.5)d vs (8.6 ±2.8)d,t=3.712,P<0.01] and hospitalization costs [(3 976.4 ± 473.5)yuan vs (5 468.1 ±726.6)yuan,t=3.804,P<0.01)] in the treatment group were significantly less than those of the control group .Conclusion The therapeutic effects of the combination of traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine for pediatric mycoplasma pneumonia ( accumulation of phlegm -heat syndrome ) is better than single western medicine treatment ,which can shorten hospital stays and reduce treatment costs ,deserves clinical promotion .
