title: [Effect of Qingkailing Injection on children with respiratory syncytial virus pneumonia of phlegm-heat obstructing Fei syndrome pattern at different time-points].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To evaluate the curative effect of Qingkailing Injection (QKL) for treatment of children's respiratory syncytial virus pneumonia of phlegm-heat obstructing Fei syndrome pattern (SVP-PH) depending upon main symptom assessment.
  
  
  METHODS
  A Chinese-Western medicine comparative trial was conducted on 206 children with SVP-PH in two groups treated with Ribavirin injection plus compound guaiacol potassium sul-fonale oral solution (as control group) and QKL injection plus Ertong Qingfei oral liquid (as treated group) respectively, for 10 days. The curative effectiveness on four main symptoms (fever, cough, sputum and short breath) were evaluated at different time-points.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The effectiveness in the treated group at various time-points was superior to that in the control group, showing the earlier initiating time (on the 4th day) and the preponderances on cough and sputum ran all through the whole course.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Chinese medicine shows a multi-target effect in treating children's SVP-HP.
