Pneumonia, sepsis, hydrocephalus - what is the reason?

Patient's question:

13th diagnosed with bronchopneumonia, hydrocephalus, and patent foramen ovale. On the 18th, pneumonia improved but sepsis was detected. Previous treatment and outcomes: Currently still in intensive care. What kind of assistance is needed: Can the baby heal on its own? Will it not interfere with future health?...

Doctor's answer:

It is recommended that you let your child endure further treatment in the pediatric department of the hospital for a while, which would be better. Gradually, the child will fully recover. After the child has recovered, consider surgical treatment for patent foramen ovale when the child is older. A positive sputum culture suggests that your child has Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection. This condition rarely enters the bloodstream. The above advice is for the issue of "bronchopneumonia, sepsis, hydrocephalus, and patent foramen ovale." It is hoped that this will be helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
