Question

A baby born at 38 weeks and 3 days showed purple and pale facial color within 0 to 7 hours after birth, diagnosed by the doctor as neonatal respiratory difficulty, pneumonia, and aspiration. After a day of respiratory cessation in an incubator, the baby’s face color returned to normal, and the condition improved. Color Doppler ultrasound examination showed that the baby had patent ductus arteriosus and patent foramen ovale. Are these conditions severe? Can they heal on their own? Do they belong to congenital heart disease? Will they be inherited across generations?

Answer

The treatment principle for pediatric pneumonia is to use anti-inflammatory drugs to thoroughly eliminate pathogenic bacteria. Select sensitive drugs based on different pathogens, and it is recommended to take pediatric lung fever cough asthma oral liquid, which is a commonly used adjuvant medication for pediatric pneumonia and bronchitis in clinical practice, with significant efficacy. When used in combination with azithromycin, it can reduce antibiotic resistance. While treating neonatal respiratory difficulty patients, attention should also be paid to maintaining good dietary habits and supplementing the body’s required nutrition.
