ABSTRACT
This case study aims to provide the students and readers with nursing research
related and nursing practice related further understanding about Pediatric Community-
Acquired Pneumonia-C. Viruses account for most cases of PCAP during the first two
years of life. After this period, bacteria such as Streptococcus pneumoniae, Mycoplasma
pneumoniae and Chlamydia pneumoniae become more frequent. The symptoms are
nonspecific in younger infants, but cough and tachypnea are usually present in older
children.
In order to collect data, the students used interview and patient need assessment
tool as well as gathering relevant information in the patient’s chart. It also includes the
laboratory and diagnostic results to gather more accurate data. Pediatric Community-
Acquired Pneumonia is a lower respiratory tract infection occurring in a child who has
not resided in a hospital or health care facility. Symptoms are present in about 75% of
affected children. This may include fever, cyanosis and signs of respiratory distress:
tachypnea, cough, nasal flaring, rales and decreased in breath sounds. Often it gets worse

Nationally, The Philippines is one of the 15 countries that together account for 75
percent of childhood pneumonia cases,” World Health Organization (WHO) reports. “In
children under five years, pneumonia is the leading cause of mortality.” Pneumonia is an
infection that inflames the air sacs in one or both lungs (doctors call these “alveoli”). “The
lung is a large organ, and it’s a vital organ,” explains Dr. Gerard Criner, chairman and
Philadelphia. “If it gets infected and it comprises the primary function to support
ventilation, that’s a big contributor to morbidity and mortality.” Pneumonia happens
when the air sacs are filled with fluid or pus so much so that a person will have a hard
time breathing in enough oxygen to reach the bloodstream. “Pneumonia tends to be more
serious for children under the age of five, adults over the age of 65, people with certain
people who have weak immune systems due to HIV/AIDS, chemotherapy [a treatment
for cancer], or organ or blood and marrow stem cell transplant procedures.”

Summary:
pneumonia. It occurs outside of hospitals or other health care facilities. It may be caused
by: Bacteria. Streptococcus pneumoniae. This type of pneumonia can occur on its own or
after you've had a cold or the flu. It may affect one part (lobe) of the lung, a condition
which typically isn't severe enough to require bed rest. Fungi. This type of pneumonia is
most common in people with chronic health problems or weakened immune systems,
and in people who have inhaled large doses of the organisms. The fungi that cause it can
be found in soil or bird droppings and vary depending upon geographic location.
Viruses. Some of the viruses that cause colds and the flu can cause pneumonia. Viruses
are the most common cause of pneumonia in children younger than 5 years. Viral
pneumonia is usually mild. But in some cases, it can become very serious.
Symptoms in newborns and babies under a month old are the only age group that
rarely cough as a direct consequence of pneumonia. The most common symptoms are
irritability and not feeding properly. Symptoms in babies over a month old is coughing.
Other pneumonia symptoms observed in babies of this age include: Congestion,
the feeling that the chest is full or clogged, Wheezing or heavy breathing and fever. In
Toddlers and preschoolers, Fever and cough are the most common symptoms. Other
symptoms include: Abnormally rapid breathing, Congestion and Vomiting. And the
symptoms in older children are fever and coughing. They might also complain of the
following symptoms: Chest pain, Tiredness, and Vague stomach pain. The treatment of
pneumonia can be managed at home. Children with bacterial infections will generally be
given antibiotics, whereas viral infections usually resolve themselves without the need

Pneumonia means that there is an infection and inflammation in the lungs. Step 1
is that there is an invasion of pathogen. This invasion can either be a bacterium, a virus
the lungs. Step 2 is the inflammatory response is triggered. When this happens the blood,
vessels dilate, and the blood vessel walls separate and become leaky which leads us to
step 3 which we call “Capillary leak”. The blood vessels dilate and become leaky so that
all the white blood cells can move out from the blood vessels and go into the lungs into
battle to fight off the invading pathogens. Step 4, edema and exudate is created for this is
caused when all those white blood cells fight off the pathogens that have invaded the
lungs. This causes a lot of exudate build up inside the lungs – all those dead pathogens.
Step 5 is the reduced gas exchange. We know that the lungs are responsible for getting
oxygen into the blood and removing carbon dioxide from the blood. But, from all this
fluid build-up inside the lungs, it can’t get oxygen or get rid of carbon dioxide as well as
it should. This can lead to respiratory acidosis because of too much carbon dioxide build
