ABSTRACT
Pertussis is a highly contagious respiratory disease.Although widespread vaccination has greatly reduced the incidence of pertussis, there was a " recurrence of pertussis" in the past 30 years, and pertussis outbreaks occurred in some areas.Infants who have not been vaccinated or have not completed the full course of immunization suffer from more severe pertussis infections.Because of the atypical symptoms of young infants, missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis often occur, and pertussis cannot be diagnosed and treated in time.As a result, they can easily develop into severe pertussis or even die.In this article, recently published research on severe pertussis are summarized, so as to provide guidance for the clinical diagnosis, treatment, prevention and basic scientific research of severe pertussis.
