Discussion on the traditional Chinese medicine constitution and treatment of school-age children with Mycoplasmal pneumoniae pneumonia
Objective To explore the constitution,pathogenesis and treatment of school-age children with Mycoplasmal pneumoniae pneumonia(MPP).Methods A total of 110 school-age children with Mycoplasmal pneumoniae pneumonia treated in the outpatient Traditional Chinese Medicine Department,Beijing Shijingshan Hospital from September to December 2023 were selected as observation group.35 school-age children with no fever or respiratory symptoms were selected as control group,and the traditional Chinese medicine constitution,syndrome type,etiology and disease location of the two groups were compared.Results The traditional Chinese medicine constitution of the children in observation group was mainly peaceful quality and moist heat quality.The syndrome types were phlegm-heat blocking lung syndrome,wind-heat blocking lung syndrome and Yin deficiency lung heat syndrome.There was no significant correlation between physical constitution and syndrome(x2=3.16,P=0.21,Cramer's V=0.17).In observation group,most of the diseases were lung,large intestine and heart.The causes were heat,phlegm dampness,blood stasis and wind.There was a statistically significant difference in the distribution of traditional Chinese medicine constitution between two groups of pediatric patients(x2=12.32,P=0.002).Conclusion Children with damp-heat constitution may have a certain susceptibility to Mycoplasmal pneumoniae pneumonia.The treatment of school-age children with Mycoplasmal pneumoniae pneumonia should not ignore the disease of the heart system and blood stasis,at the same time,the combination of"disease,syndrome and symptom",and pay attention to physical adjustment.
