Stafilocócica pneumony complicated in a pediatric patient: On the purpose of a clinical case

Abstract:

Pneumonia is defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) as an acute respiratory infection that affects the pulmonary alveoli, making it difficult to breathe and absorb oxygen, affecting the child population. Therefore, it was proposed to analyze complicated staphylococcal pneumonia with a clinical, radiological and treatment approach in the pediatric patient to establish elements that help to develop diagnostic and treatment protocols. A documentary, observational and analytical study was conducted through a direct interview with the patient and family members and the clinical analysis of the signs and symptoms presented by the patient. By means of the clinical, radiological evaluation and timely treatment in the pediatric patient with complicated staphylococcal pneumonia, it was possible to establish elements that may help to elaborate a protocol for the diagnosis and treatment of said pathology.
