This article studies the effect of pulmonary ultrasound in the diagnosis and treatment of neonatal pneumonia. In this experiment, 33 children with pneumonia diagnosed and treated in the hospital were selected as the research objects, and all were performed by X-ray examination and lung ultrasound. After the test was completed, the diagnostic accuracy of the two examination methods was analyzed, the performance of the chest X-rays of the children were observed, and the lung ultrasound examination was recorded at the same time. The results showed that the diagnostic accuracy of lung ultrasound examination was 93.00%, which was higher than 75.00% of X-ray examination, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). In the experiment, the paired chi-square test was performed on the results of LUS and bedside CXR diagnosis of IPN, and the value was 0.687. The two have a good consistency in the diagnosis of IPN in NICU. The Pearson correlation test results of LUS score and neonatal pneumonia case score showed that there was a significant negative correlation between LUS score and neonatal pneumonia case score. The LUS scores between the control group, non-risk recombination, and risk recombination were tested by rank sum test of multiple independent samples. The results showed that the LUS scores of the three groups were statistically significant (P < 0.05). The LUS scores of the risk recombination were significantly higher than the non-risk recombination. Two independent sample rank sum tests were performed between each two groups. After Bonferroni correction of P value, the difference between each group was statistically significant. In the end, we have concluded that for the diagnosis of neonatal pneumonia, pulmonary ultrasound can be used for diagnosis. Combining pulmonary ultrasound with X-rays can improve the diagnosis accuracy of pneumonia. During the treatment, ultrasound is used for dynamic monitoring. By observing the pleural line and pulmonary consolidation it can be used to clarify the treatment effect of children. LUS and bedside CXR have a good agreement for the diagnosis of IPN. The LUS score can effectively assess the severity of IPN. The greater the severity of the disease in children with IPN, the higher the LUS score.
