Xinjiang Net News (Reporter Wu Zhijie, Correspondent Qin Zijing) Recently, Mr. Sun, a citizen, sent a pennant to the Respiratory Department of Xinjiang Hospital of Beijing Children's Hospital. He shook the doctor's hand and thanked him repeatedly: "My child was severely pneumonia, hospitalized on the same day, operated on the same day, and the child's cough symptoms were reduced on the same day, thank you for your hard work." ”
It is understood that in mid-December last year, Mr. Sun's child began to have cough symptoms, and after taking medicine for a period of time, the symptoms were reduced during the day, and the cough worsened at night. He was found to have severe pneumonia in a hospital and was hospitalized in the respiratory department of Xinjiang Hospital of Beijing Children's Hospital in early January this year.
Ma Lanhong, director of the respiratory department, gave a complete examination to the child and found that the child's lung inflammation was severe, and plastic embolus had appeared in the airway, blocking the airway, resulting in poor sputum discharge and dyspnea, and bronchoscopy and lavage were needed as soon as possible.
On the same day, Director Ma Lanhong carried out bronchoscopic alveolar lavage, plastic emboli removal, and gave topical medication**, and the child's symptoms were alleviated on the same day, and he was cured and discharged after a week of hospitalization.

Director Ma Lanhong told reporters that respiratory diseases are frequent in winter, and parents need to pay attention to their children's daily health and pay attention to distinguishing the difference between the common cold and pneumonia. The common cold has symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, fever, cough, etc., and it usually resolves on its own in seven days. The clinical manifestations of pneumonia in children are mainly fever, cough, sputum production, and shortness of breath. If pneumonia is left right**, the condition can worsen rapidly. If the child has been experiencing these symptoms for more than a week, or if the body temperature remains high for three to five days, parents should send them to the hospital for examination** in time to avoid developing severe pneumonia. If severe mycoplasma pneumonia is considered, it is necessary and effective to improve lung CT in time, and actively choose bronchoscopic lavage and deep plastic embolectomy according to CT changes. Improving the child's symptoms can avoid the occurrence of airway occlusion.
It is understood that if severe mycoplasma pneumonia in children is not received in time, it may produce sequelae - bronchitis obliterans, bronchiolitis obliterans (including hyaline lungs), bronchiectasis, atelectasis, organizing pneumonia, etc., due to the formation of sputum plastic embolus will bond the small airways together, resulting in a decline in children's lung function, especially small airway function, affecting children's growth and development.
