Abstract：Objective To iuvestigate the effects of early administration of small dose cedilanid in infants with severe pneumonia in compensation stage of heart failure.Methods Totally forty-eight infauts with severe pneumonia were divided into observation group (n =23) and control group (n =25).Results The time of cough improvement,heart rate recovery,respiration recovery and duration of hospitalization in the treatment group were significantly shorter than those in the control group [(0.8 ± 0.3) d vs (3.8 ± 0.7) d,(1.0 ± 0.5) d vs (3.6 ± 0.6) d,(7.1 ± 0.5) d vs (8.0 ± 0.4) d] ; there were significant differences (all P ＜ 0.01).The total affective rate of observation group was 100.0％ (23/23) and it was 56.0％ (14/25) in the control group,showing significaut differences (P ＜0.05).There was no adverse reaction in observation group; there were 3 cases suffering from pneumonia,3 cases suffering from pneumonia combined with congenital heart disease; 1 case suffered from severe anemia in control group.Conclusion Application of small dose cedilanid as an early intervention on infants with severe pneumonia can prevent the occurrence of heart failure effectively and safely.
