Question

The neonate was diagnosed with infectious pneumonia and experienced two hemorrhages during the treatment process, and has now been transferred to another hospital. How long does it typically take to treat this condition before discharge?

Answer

The hospital stay for neonatal infectious pneumonia needs to be assessed comprehensively based on the specific condition of the illness and the effectiveness of treatment. Neonatal pneumonia is a serious condition that requires inpatient treatment. The treatment plan will consider factors such as the baby’s physical condition, whether the baby was premature, if the baby’s weight is low, and the severity of the infection. Additionally, treatment for symptoms such as fever, coughing, and sputum production is carried out. If pneumonia is caused by bacterial infection, antibiotic treatment is required. Traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis and treatment also shows significant efficacy in pneumonia treatment.
