Abstract

Objectives: Factors associated with treatment outcomes of pneumococcal pneumonia in children at Thai Binh Children's Hospital.

Methods: A combined retrospective and prospective analytical study was conducted on 153 patients from 2 months to below 60 months of age, who are diagnosed with pneumococcal pneumonia, categorized into two groups based on clinical status at discharge: recovered and improved, from 6/2025 to 12/2025, at Thai Binh Children’s Hospital.

Results: The cure rate among patients with pneumococcal pneumonia was 85%. Children aged 12 to <60 months showed a high recovery rate of 88,2%. Patients with non-severe pneumococcal pneumonia had a significantly higher recovery rate compared to those with severe cases, with p < 0,05. Children who was vaccinicated for pneumococcus had shorter hospital admittion time. Furthermore, children who received antibiotics prior to admission was accounted for 73,8% cases, which had a lower recovery rate compared to those who did not (p < 0,05).

Conclusion: Pneumococcal pneumonia often happens in group age 12 to 60 months, severe pneumonia increases the admittion time while initial pneumococcal vaccination decrease the admittion time. Prehospital antibiotic using prolonged the admittion time.
