Community-acquired pneumonia in children Recommendations of the Croatian Society for Pediatric Pulmonology of the Croatian Medical Association. (English)

Community-acquired pneumonia is potentially serious infection in children. The diagnosis can be based on the history and clinical signs and symptoms. Additional diagnostic tests (laboratory, imaging, and microbiology) may be helpful when diagnosis is unclear. The most likely etiology depends on a number of factors such as seasonality, geographic location, the age of child, and the severity of disease. Treatment involves symptomatic measures, and in most children antibiotic therapy. This paper presents the clinical guidelines of the Croatian Society of Pediatric Pulmonology to standardize the procedures for the diagnosis and treatment of children with community-acquired pneumonia.

Izvanbolnička upala pluća jest potencijalno ozbiljna infekcija u djece. Dijagnostika izvanbolničkih upala pluća u djece temelji se na anamnestičkim podatcima i kliničkim simptomima i znacima, potpomognuto dodatnim dijagnostičkim pretragama: laboratorijskim, slikovnim i mikrobiološkim. Etiologija izvanbolničke upale pluća ovisi o brojnim čimbenicima, kao što su sezonstvo, geografski položaj, dob bolesnika i težina bolesti. Liječenje djeteta s izvanbolničkom upalom pluća uključuje primjenu simptomatskih mjera i u većine bolesnika antimikrobnu terapiju. U radu su prikazane kliničke preporuke Hrvatskog društva za pedijatrijsku pulmologiju radi ujednačenja postupaka i kriterija postavljanja dijagnoze, liječenja i prevencije izvanbolničkih upala pluća u djece.
