Effect of Qingfei Huatan Huoxue Decoction combined with azithromycin on pulmonary function and inflammatory factors in children with Mycoplasma pneumonia.

To investigate the effect of Qingfei Huatan Huoxue Decoction combined with azithromycin on pulmonary function and inflammatory factors in children with Mycoplasma pneumonia. A total of 155 children with Mycoplasma pneumonia of toxic heat blocking lung syndrome were randomly divided into the control group (n=77) and the observation group (n=78) from March 2020 to March 2021. Both groups of children were given conventional treatment and azithromycin intravenous drip and the observation group was additionally given oral administration of Qingfei Huatan Huoxue Decoction, with 7 days as a course of treatment totaling 2 courses. The lung function, inflammatory factor level, immune function and coagulation function were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. After treatment, the symptom integral of fever, cough and pulmonary wet rales in the two groups were reduced, while FEV1, PEF and FEV1/ FVC were significantly increased, serum TNF-α, IFN- γ and IL-6 were significantly reduced, the levels of Immunoglobulin M (IgM), IgG and IgA were significantly reduced and plasma PT and APTT were significantly reduced, with more significant changes observed in the observation group (all P<0.05). The disappearance time of fever, cough and pulmonary moist rales in the observation group was significantly shorter than that in the control group (P<0.05). The recovery rate of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.05). Qingfei Huatan Huoxue Decoction combined.
