Paciente femenino de 8 años con neumonía bacteriana.

According to the World Health Organization (World Health Organization, 2019) they carry out research where they have accurate data and figures for this main segment which are children because it is listed as the leading single cause of infant mortality worldwide. Through the clinical case as main objective is to identify the cause of pneumonia in the pediatric patient and choose the appropriate treatment. This 8-year-old patient, who consulted with symptoms of cough with phlegm and fever of 39 degrees with 8 days of evolution among his medical history mentioned two hospitalizations in primary care centers of his locality, the first at 24 months (2 years) of life for bronchitis, receiving treatment with intravenous antibiotics and mucolytics, with clinical improvement; the second hospitalization was at 36 months (3 years) of life, again for a diagnosis of pneumonia. In conclusion on this clinical case we were able to resolve the incidences of pneumonia in a pediatric patient. We also sought to reduce the infectious agents such as: viruses, bacteria and fungi that cause pneumonia, the most common being the following: Streptocoscus pnuemoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, Pneumocysitis jiroveci. It should be emphasized that respiratory therapy techniques have been observed to reduce the incidence of infection in the lungs and decrease the progression of bronchiectasis.
