Patient's question:
The baby is 27 months old and has recently been diagnosed with bronchopneumonia. They have been receiving intravenous fluids at the outpatient clinic for 3 days and have shown some improvement. Previously, they had a low-grade fever, which has now subsided, and their mental state has slightly improved. However, the cough remains severe. Should they be admitted to the hospital? I would like to ask if outpatient treatment with intravenous fluids can be effective. Please provide your opinion, thank you? (Male, 2 years old)Doctor's answer:
