Objective
The aim is to look at the rate of macrolide resistance in a group of children admitted with mycoplasma pneumonia at a local hospital and to compare and analyze clinical features of macrolide-resistantMycoplasma pneumoniae (MRMP) and macrolide-sensitiveMycoplasma pneumoniae (MSMP) to facilitate early recognition of likely resistance and to guide the choice of appropriate antibiotics for treatment.
