ABSTRACT

Pneumonia is one of the most common diseases in pediatric patients. Some children with pneumonia have common problems such as difficulty in absorption of lung rales, unsatisfied disease, or poor compliance during clinical treatment. The application of acupoint is one of the external treatments of the motherland medicine and has shown its unique effects in the treatment of children with pneumonia. This paper reviews the literature on the application of acupoint in children with pneumonia in recent 10 years, and provides a basis for promoting the use of acupoint in the treatment of children with pneumonia.
