Abstract

Objective: To explore the early intervention strategy of the combination of traditional Chinese and Western Medicine in the treatment of PICU pneumonia by a ventilator.

Methods: From January 2018 to October 2019, 180 children with mechanical ventilation VAP were randomly divided into an intervention group and a control group. 90 children in the control group received standard treatment + passive physical treatment + routine care. 90 children in the intervention group received traditional Chinese medicine treatment + cluster intervention. Before and after the intervention, the therapeutic indexes, such as mechanical ventilation time, Apgar score, were compared.

Results: There was no significant difference between the two groups before and after treatment (P > 0.05); after treatment, compared with the control group, the level of SaO2, PO2, and pH in the intervention group was significantly higher, while PCO2 was lower (P < 0.05); WBC, N, and l were significantly lower (P < 0.05); ALP, ALT, and AST were significantly lower in the serum, (P<0.05) After the intervention, compared with the control group, the Apgar score of the intervention group was significantly lower, while the mechanical ventilation time was significantly shorter, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05).

Conclusion: After the early intervention strategy of integration of traditional Chinese and Western medicine and clinical imaging examination, the rehabilitation time and treatment time of picu vap children can be improved significantly.
