ABSTRACT
Objective To study the clinical factors of sclerema neonatorum complicated with pneumorrhagia and propose therapy and control measures in order to.improve clinical treatment.Methods27 cases of sclerema neonatorum complicated with pneumorrhagia treated in Chaozhou Central Hospital from January 2005 to December 2007 were investigated retrospectively.Results In all 96 cases of sclerema neonatorum,27 Were complicated with pneumorrhagia.mortality of which was 67%.9 cases of pneumorrhagia without mechanical ventilation died totally.Early tracheal intubation discovered 9 cases of pneumorrhagia,mortality was 56%.5 cases died within the 6 oronasal emissing blood,taking up 83%in mortality.There were significant differences between them(P＜0.05).Conclusion The incidence of pneumorrhagia in sclerema neonatorum was closely related to fetal month,age,scleredema degrees,acidosis,birth weight ect.The more severe scleredema,the lower birth weight and the fewer fetal month were,the higher incidence rate was.
