Factors associated with Mycoplasma pneumoniae-induced Lobar pneumonia with mucus plugging and the optimal timing for bronchoalveolar lavage: a retrospective study

Elevated D-dimer levels, delayed BAL intervention, and prolonged hospital stay are significant associated with delayed radiographic resolution in children with LPMP. Early BAL intervention within 6 days of admission improves clinical outcomes by accelerating recovery and reducing complications. These findings support prompt BAL as a key component in the management of pediatric LPMP.

Abstract

Elevated D-dimer levels, delayed BAL intervention, and prolonged hospital stay are significant associated with delayed radiographic resolution in children with LPMP. Early BAL intervention within 6 days of admission improves clinical outcomes by accelerating recovery and reducing complications. These findings support prompt BAL as a key component in the management of pediatric LPMP.
