The role of transthoracic ultrasonography in predicting the outcome of community-acquired pneumonia in hospitalized children.

The role of transthoracic ultrasonography in predicting the outcome of community-acquired pneumonia in hospitalized children.

CONCLUSION:TUS findings of fluid bronchogram, multifocal involvement, and pleural effusion were associated with adverse outcomes, including longer hospital stay, ICU admission, and tube thoracotomy in hospitalized CAP children. Therefore, TUS is a novel tool for prognostic stratifications of CAP in...
