Abstract

The aim of the study was to study the influence of the clinical picture features in patients with mild, moderate and severe pneumonia with favorable and fatal outcomes. Material and methods of research. 412 children with pneumonia were under observation: mild, severe pneumonia with a favorable outcome, severe pneumonia with an unfavorable outcome. The results of the study. Severe pneumonia with an unfavorable outcome did not clinically differ from severe pneumonia with recovery: unfavorable dynamics of the course, characterized by an increase in symptoms of toxicosis of the 3rd degree (25.0%), respiratory failure of the 3rd degree (66.6%) and multiple organ disorders, while the manifestations of bronchopulmonary syndrome differed little.
