ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the characteristics and clinical significance of lung function in children with mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia. Methods The pulmonary ventilation function of 60 cases of mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia was tested in the acute stage and 2 weeks after treatment by the pneumatometer made by JAEGER company in Germany. FVC, FEV1, PEF, FEF25,FEF50、FEF75 and MMEF75/25 was detected. Results In acute phase, lung function indexs (FVC, FEV1, PEF, FEF25, FEF50, FEF75, MMEF75/25) of 60 children with MPP were less than expected(1.56 ± 0.53) L vs.(1.99 ± 0.69) L, (1.37 ± 0.47) L vs. (1.68 ± 0.57) L, (2.90 ± 0.86) L/s vs. (3.95 ± 1.08) L/s, (2.48 ± 0.67) L/s vs. (3.56 ± 0.89) L/s, (1.42 ± 0.41) L/s vs. (2.51 ± 0.64) L/s, (0.65 ± 0.20) L/s vs. (1.28 ± 0.33) L/s, (1.22 ± 0.77) L/s vs.(2.18 ± 0.61) L/s], and there were significant difference (P<0.01). In recovery period, the level of FVC, FEV1, PEF, FEF25, FEF50, FEF75, MMEF75/25 was significantly better than that in acute phase (98.80 ± 9.34)% vs.(79.14 ± 6.28)%, (98.67 ± 8.28)% vs. (81.63 ± 6.56)%, (86.23 ± 6.86)% vs.(73.17 ± 6.21)%, (85.17 ± 7.86)% vs. (69.79 ± 8.16)%, (79.08 ± 7.99)% vs. (56.57 ± 8.77)%, (70.85 ± 7.48)% vs. (50.66 ± 9.86)%, (77.35 ± 6.81)% vs. (56.19 ± 9.61)%, P<0.01. Conclusions In the acute stage, the pulmonary function of children with MPP shows hybrid ventilation dysfunction. In the recovery period, pulmonary function index improves significantly, but there are still abnormal small airway indicators.
