Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of bronchoscopic lavage in children with severe adenoviral pneumonia.Methods:Patients with severe adenovirus pneumonia who were admitted to ICU department of Hunan Children′s Hospital for bronchoscopy were collected from February to June 2019 and divided into lavage group( n=36) and non-lavage group( n=15) in line with whether lavage was performed.Their results, namely, bronchoscopic diagnosis, blood gas analysis before and 2 hours, 24 hours and 48 hours after bronchoscopy, improvement time of clinical symptoms(fever and pulmonary moist rales), the positive rate of pathogen detection and mortality rate, main vital signs such as heart rate, respiratory rate, mean arterial pressure and bronchoscopy-related complications were recorded before and 1 hour, 2 hours and 24 hours after bronchoscopy. Results:A total of 51 children were collected, all of whom suffered from endobronchitis.More secretions were observed in the airways of 36 patients in the lavage group, and only a little or no secretions were observed in 15 patients in the non-lavage group.P/F value and PCO 2 at 2 hours, 24 hours and 48 hours after treatment in the lavage group were improved comparing to those before treatment and were superior to those in the non-lavage group( P<0.05). P/F values at 24 hours and 48 hours after treatment in the non-lavage group increased and PCO 2 decreased at 48 hours after treatment( P<0.05). The thermal duration, time to resolution of moist rales in the lungs in the lavage group were shorter than those in the non-lavage group( P<0.05). The mortality rate in the lavage group was lower than that in the non-lavage group[2.8%(1/36) vs.26.7%(4/15), P<0.05]. The positive rate of pathogen detection in lavage group was higher than that in non-lavage group[55.6%(20/36) vs. 20.0%(3/15), P<0.05]. There was no significant difference in heart rate, respiratory rate, and mean arterial pressure at each time point before and after bronchoscopic treatment( P>0.05). Associated complications were 11 cases of intraoperative transient hypoxemia, four cases of bronchial mucosal bleeding, and one case each of postoperative hypoxemia, intraoperative hypertension and hypotension.There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between the two groups( P>0.05). Conclusion:Bronchoscopic lavage, in treating children with severe adenovirus pneumonia, may improve clinical symptoms, respiratory function, and rate of pathogen detection, reduce mortality, and is effective and safe.
