Clinical Research Progress of Chinese Medicine in Treating Recurrent Respiratory Tract Infections in Children

Objective: To study the effect of traditional Chinese medicine ointment on recurrent respiratory infection in children in cold area, and the effect on the changes of trace elements and serum immune indexes. Methods: 100 cases of children with recurrent respiratory infection were selected from 06 months from 2016 to 06 months in 2017 in our hospital. All the children were divided into the observation group and the control group according to the random digital table method, with 50 cases in each group[3]. The children in the control group were treated with the standard treatment of anti inflammation of Western medicine[7], improving immunity and so on. The observation group was added with Jianpi moistening ointment on the basis of the standard treatment of Western medicine. After 2 weeks of continuous treatment[9], the clinical and laboratory indexes were compared between the 2 groups. Results: the total effective rate of treatment in the observation group was 90%, which was significantly higher than that of the control group (72%), and the difference between the 2 groups was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The serum immunologic level of the observation group and the control group were significantly improved after the treatment (P < 0.05), but the observation group was better than the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: traditional Chinese medicine ointment is effective in the treatment of recurrent respiratory infection in children, and it can significantly improve the serum immune level of children. It is worthy of clinical application[5].
