Objectives
• Describe how to appropriately diagnosis pneumonia in a febrile coughing child; be able to articulate the limitations of various diagnostic modalities
• Implement appropriate evidence-based treatment for children with severe lower respiratory infections of both bacterial and viral etiology

A Child
A 10 month old child presents with two days of fever and cough.
What is needed to appropriately make a diagnosis?
What treatment is most likely to help?
Pneumonia
1,200,000 deaths per year
Many cases vaccine-preventable
~30% of children provided antibiotics

A 10 month old is febrile and coughing. A 10 month old is febrile and coughing. What equipment is most useful in What equipment is most useful in establishing a diagnosis?establishing a diagnosis?
A. A blood count machine

C. A stethoscope
D. None of the above
Tachypneaas a means of diagnosing “pneumonia”
2 - 12 months > 50 breaths / minute
12 - 60 months > 40 breaths / minute
IF tachypnea (or severe retractions), give antibiotic.
IF very sick, hospitalize for parenteral therapy.
What Causes Fever and Tachypnea?
Bacterial Pneumonia
Malaria
Viral Respiratory Infection
Fever Plus:
Metabolic Acidosis
- diabetes
- dehydration

Complicated Pneumonia (Effusion)
Antibiotics (likely 3 weeks, parenteral for at least first week, then cloxacillin orally)
Tap if > 1 cm fluid
Drainage tube if persists
Fibrinolytics if organized
Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery if needed

Supportive Care for Child With Pneumonia
Oxygen (for sat < 90%, excessive effort)
Fear of Oxygen? Deal with It! Stevenson (Tanzania). Arch Dis Child 2014
Fluids and nutrition (IV vs NG vs oral)
Analgesics (to decrease distress, for T> 39o C)
It matters less what disease the patient has
and more what patient has the disease.

No consistent evidence to support the use of:
anti-viral drugs
bronchodilators
corticosteroids
Use of these agents is NOT recommended
50-80% of hospitalized children receive this Rx
Withholding therapy is much more difficult than giving it.

A Child
A 10 month old child presents with two days of fever and cough.
What is needed to appropriately make a diagnosis? Count respiratory rate! Consider other evaluation.
What treatment is most likely to help? Antibiotic if tachypneic. Anti-malarial if test-positive. Supportive care, especially if likely bronchiolitis.
