Cytomegalovirus was detected for infantile pneumonia

Cytomegalovirus detected in infantile pneumonia may be caused by weak immunity, maternal infection during pregnancy, contact with the source of infection, congenital cytomegalovirus infection, abnormal immune system, etc., and targeted treatment should be carried out after clarifying the actual situation.

1. Weak immunity: The baby's immune system is not fully developed, and the resistance to the virus is weak, and it is easy to be invaded by cytomegalovirus. Generally, supportive and symptomatic treatment is required, such as maintaining indoor air circulation, giving the baby adequate water and nutrition, etc., and antiviral drugs such as ribavirin granules and oseltamivir phosphate granules can also be considered under the guidance of a doctor.

2. Maternal infection during pregnancy: If the mother is infected with cytomegalovirus during pregnancy, the baby may carry the virus at birth, and jaundice, hepatosplenomegaly, etc. Antiviral drugs such as antiviral liquids, ganciclovir tablets, etc., can be used under the guidance of a doctor, while the condition changes are closely observed.

3. Contact with the source of infection: Infants are infected when they come into contact with secretions, diapers, toys and other items containing cytomegalovirus in their living environment. At this time, it is necessary to pay attention to cleanliness and hygiene, wash hands frequently, avoid contact with suspicious contaminants, etc., to remove adverse triggers.

4. Congenital cytomegalovirus infection: Some babies carry congenital cytomegalovirus at birth, which may lead to damage to multiple organs. Antiviral drugs such as ganciclovir injection, foscarnet injection, etc., can be used under the guidance of a doctor, and surgery can be considered when there are serious complications.

5. Abnormal immune system: patients with abnormal immune system, such as AIDS, lymphoma and other diseases, are susceptible to CMV, and infants are no exception, and it is generally transmitted vertically from mother to child. A comprehensive treatment plan should be developed according to the primary disease and complications, and it is recommended to consult a professional doctor for detailed guidance.

In daily life, it is necessary to carefully observe the changes in the baby's body, and if there are obvious abnormal manifestations such as cough or sputum production, it is necessary to seek medical attention as soon as possible.
