Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Integrated nursing and medical management significantly improves clinical symptoms and pulmonary function in children with lobar pneumonia, shortens hospitalization duration, reduces complication rates, and enhances caregiver satisfaction. These findings support its broad clinical applicability and value.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study aims to evaluate the clinical efficacy of integrated nursing and medical management in the treatment of pediatric lobar pneumonia. Specifically, it assesses its impact on symptom relief, pulmonary function recovery, inflammatory response control, duration of hospitalization, and caregiver satisfaction. Fifty pediatric patients diagnosed with lobar pneumonia and admitted to our hospital between January and December 2023 were selected and randomly assigned to either the observation group or the control group (n = 25 each) using a random number table. The control group received routine nursing care, while the observation group was additionally managed with an integrated nursing and medical approach. The two groups were compared in terms of duration of fever, cough, pulmonary rales, antibiotic treatment, length of hospital stay, pulmonary function parameters (FEV₁, FVC, FEV₁/FVC), inflammatory markers (CRP, WBC, PCT, LDH), overall treatment efficacy, caregiver satisfaction, and incidence of adverse events.
