Multislice spiral computed tomography can independently predict the bronchoscopy results of children with bronchitis (pneumonia) suspected caused by bronchial foreign bodies.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Multislice spiral computed tomography (MSCT) playsa vital role in the diagnosis of bronchial foreign bodies in children. Bronchitis (pneumonia) can be caused by bronchial foreign bodies in children, which need to be diagnosed and treated by bronchoscopy. To understand the application of MSCT in children with bronchitis (pneumonia) suspected to be caused by bronchial foreign bodies, the clinical data of 162 children were analyzed retrospectively.

Methods

The clinical data of 162 children with bronchitis (pneumonia) suspected to be caused by bronchial foreign bodies were collected, including sex, age, course of the disease, auscultation, chest X-ray, MSCT, bronchoscopy, among many others. Univariate logistic regression analysis analyzed the above other items, taking
