Two medical cases of traditional Chinese medicine treatment for children with influenza A virus infection complicated with necrotizing encephalopathy
Influenza A virus-associated necrotizing encephalopathy is a critical pediatric illness. In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), the key pathological mechanisms during the recovery period involve phlegm, blood stasis, and deficiency, which can be treated with Chinese medicine and acupuncture. In Chinese medicine therapy, the main principles are to resolve phlegm and remove blood stasis, and to open the orifices and awaken the mind, supplemented by dispelling wind and dredging the collaterals, as well as replenishing
qi
and nourishing
yin
. In the later stage of the disease, attention should be given to clearing residual pathogenic factors. In addition, treatment based on syndrome differentiation should be tailored according to the constitution of each child. Acupuncture can unblock the meridians and activate the collaterals, regulate
yin
and
yang
, and strengthen the body while eliminating pathog
enic factors, demonstrating beneficial effects in this condition. Early intervention with TCM can effectively improve prognosis.
