Abstract:

To summarize the nursing experience for a child with severe mycoplasma pneumonia complicated by plastic bronchitis and necrotizing pneumonia with hydropneumothorax and pulmonary embolism. In response to the characteristics of multiple intertwined complications and rapid progression,we implemented stepwise interventions based on dynamic "symptom-imaging-laboratory" triple monitoring,including bronchoscopic lavage to remove plastic casts,meticulous regulation of closed thoracic drainage,D-dimer-guided anticoagulation. After 36 days of treatment,the child recovered and was discharged. After 8 months of follow-up,imaging of the child showed good recovery.
