Objective To investigate the changes of plasma adrenomedullin(ADM),endothelin-1(ET-1) in infants with severe pneumonia complicated by acute congestive heart failure,and its relationship with heart function.
The article summarized 428 cases of infantile serious pneumonia who diedand were anatomized. The results showed that in 379 cases (88.55%) withmultiple organ damage.
There were 29(61.7%) compound acid-basic unbalance,of those,5(10.6%)tri-compound acidosis,21(44.7%)metabolize acidosis with high AG,6(12.8%)metabolize acidosis with normal AG in severe pneumonia. Metabolize acidosis with high AG in sever pneumonia was significant compared with common pneumonia(t=6.9,P<0.05).
blood oxygen saturation and blood gas analysis met normal,no side effect was fund after three days treatment ( P <0 001) Conclusion:Micro dosage heparin apply is an effective and safe method for neonatal heavy pneumonia
Hydrocortisone in septic shock, ARDS and severe pneumonia
Thirty-two patients with severe pneumonia (22 on assisted ventilation) were entered into a prospective randomised trial, in which fosfomycin plus ampicillin (17 patients) was compared with gentamicin plus ampicillin (15 patients).
All patients (one man and two women from Germany, one Austrian woman, one Swiss man, and one Italian woman) had taken thermal baths and stayed in local hotels; they all experienced severe pneumonia, and three of them died.
