Clinical features and prediction of risk factors for severe adenovirus pneumonia in children.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Adenoviral infections are most likely to invade the respiratory tract, and the clinical manifestations of the infections are varied; in severe cases, they may cause systemic multi-system damages and so on. At present, early clinical differential diagnosis is difficult under the existing testing methods, so it is important to analyze its clinical characteristics and risk factors for early identification of critical status and early and rational treatment.

Methods

The clinical data of 202 children with adenovirus pneumonia admitted to Tianjin Children's Hospital from January 2019 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the evaluation criteria for severe pneumonia, they were divided into a severe group (77 cases) and a non-severe group (125 cases
