Chinese Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 2017;32(4):253-255
Bronchiolitis is the most common lower respiratory tract disease in infants younger than 2 years of age.Many viruses can cause bronchiolitis,however,respiratory syncytial virus is most common etiology.The pathological characters are acute inflammation,edema,necrosis of epithelial cells and mucus productions increased.Diaguosis of bronchiolitis is based on clinical signs and symptoms and a thorough history and physical exam.The disease severity and risk factors for severe disease need to be assessed.The treatment of bronchiolitis has been largely supportive.Continuous positive airway pressure treatment has been accepted for severe cases.Palivizumab prophylaxis is probable in high risk infants.Hand hygiene,decreasing tobacco smoke and breastfeeding are considered as efficient preventive methods.

Journal of Clinical Pediatrics 2016;(2):146-149
e: Vancomycin is a glycopeptide antibiotic separated from streptomycete, having been used as the ifrst choice to treat methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infection so far. The studies show that because of the individual difference in the metabolism of vancomycin, it is dififcult to get the trough concentration of pediatric patients severely ill or complicatedly in-fected to reach the target range (15—20 mg/L). However, with the help of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of vancomycin and the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic parameter (PK/PD) mode, the PK/PD parameters to achieve the precise control can be acquired by using the Bayes feedback. By a stretched review from clinical medication guide of vancomycin to the latest evidence from research, this paper fully demonstrates that renal function, weight, age, and disease state are the principal parameters to impact pediatric patient’s vancomycin metabolism and that the area under the concentration-time curve divided by the minimum inhibitory concentration (AUC/MIC)≥400 is the better cut-off value to determine vancomycin efifcacy and toxicity.

Objective To evaluate the efifcacy and inlfuencing factors of 3%hypertonic saline (HS) inhalation in treatment of bronchiolitis. Methods Clinical data together with the detection of 16 types of respiratory tract virus from hospitalized pediatric patients with primary diagnosis of bronchiolitis from June 2009 to December 2012 were retrospectively analyzed. The endpoint indicators for evaluation on the efifcacy of nebulized 3%HS inhalation were the percent decrease of clinical severity (CS) score after 2 days' treatment and the hospitalization time. Factors affecting efifcacy were further explored. Results The CS score in nebulized 3%HS treated group decreased in average of 42.86%(11.11%-66.67%), signiifcantly higher than that (26.79%, 0.00%-50.00%) in the untreated group (P=0.006). No difference of between the two groups (P=0.26). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that nebulized 3%HS inhalation has better efifcacy on the patients older than 3 months having breastfeeding, respiratory synthetic syncytial virus (RSV) infection and extensive wheezing sound auscultation of the lungs. The multiple linear regression analysis model was statistically signiifcant (R2=0.58, P<0.001). Conclusions After 2 days' treatment with 3%hypertonic saline inhalation, the CS score of bronchiolitis patients was decreased. The treatment can be recommended in hospitalized patient older than 3 months with breastfeeding, RSV infection, and extensive wheezing sound auscultation of the lungs.

OBJECTIVE:To analyze the pathological characteristics and therapy method for influenza A(H1N1/H3N2)in-fection complicated with plastic bronchitis (PB). METHODS:Clinical information of 3 children with influenza A (H1N1/H3N2) infection complicated with PB were reported to summarize the experience of aerosol inhalation of Budesonide suspen-sion combined with fiber bronchoscope lavage. Based on literatures,this rare disease were analyzed. RESULTS:Among 3 chil-dren,2 children suffered from influenza A H1N1 infection and one child influenza A H3N2 infection complicated with PB;2 of them got basic disease,i.e. bronchial asthma and primary renal syndrome. 3 children were diagnosed as severe pneumonia,re-spiratory failure and pulmonary atelectasis;2 of them suffered from mediastinal emphesema and subcutaneous emphysema. The branchlike foreign bodies,removed by fiber bronchoscope,were fibrin complicated with neutrophile granulocyte,eosinophile granulocyte and leukomonocyte infiltration by pathological examinations. It was diagnosed as PB. 3 children received symptom-atic support treatment as assisted respiration,respiratory tract management and anti-infective treatment,and aerosol inhalation of Budesonide suspension combined with fiber bronchoscope lavage. And then they were cured and discharged from the hospi-tal. CONCLUSIONS:PB is one complication of influenza A pneumonia and severe. Fiber bronchoscope must be carried out as soon as possible based on aerosol inhalation of Budesonide suspension once PB is suspected,so as to diagnose early and treat promptly.

Objective To investigate the clinical features of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) and the antimicrobial susceptibility of invasive Streptococcus pneumoniae (Sp). Methods The clinical features of 54 children with IPD and the antimi-crobial susceptibility of 54 invasive Sp isolates were retrospectively analyzed from 2009 to 2012. Results The ratio of boys to girls in IPD was 1.35:1. Most of the children with IPD were within 2 years old. Few of the children had the onset in summer. Most of the children were diagnosed with septicemia, followed by meningitis. All of the children had middle or high fever. Forty-four children had an increased white blood cell count and 42 children had an increased C-reactive protein.β-lactam antibiotics was most frequently used in clinics, followed by vancomycin. Most of invasive Sp were resistant to penicillin. Multiple drug resis-tance was common in invasive Sp. Conclusions The incidence of IPD has seasonal difference. The clinical manifestations of IPD are diverse, with septicemia being the most common. The resistant rate to penicillin is high in invasive Sp.

To explore the associations between the presence of bacteria and virus in the nasopharyngeal secretions, and wheezing, condition and hospitalization period in infants with community acquired pneumonia. Methods Clinical data, inclu-ding detection of bacteria and viruses, conditions and hospitalization period, of 1106 hospitalized infants with community ac-quired pneumonia from March 2009 to February 2010 were retrospectively analyzed. The infants were classiifed into wheezing (697 cases) and non-wheezing (409 cases) groups. Results Viruses were detected in 540 infants (48.8%), and the total detection rate of viruses and detection rate of respiratory syncytial virus in wheezing group were signiifcantly higher than those of non-wheezing group (P=0.000). Bacteria were detected in 590 cases (53.3%) and no signiifcance was found between two groups (P=0.821). The detection rate of Streptococcus pneumonia was higher in wheezing group than that of non-wheezing group (P=0.038). Comparing to the infants detected with both viruses and bacteria, no signiifcances were found in the occurrence of severe pneumonia and hos-pitalization period in those infants detected with viruses only (P>0.05), as well as in the wheezing time of period (P>0.05). Con-clusions Wheezing in infants with community acquired pneumonia is related to the infection of viruses, especially to respiratory syncytial viruses. Virus infection accompanying bacterial infection has no impact on duration of hospitalization and wheezing. The infection of Streptococcus pneumonia may relate to wheezing in infants.
