ABSTRACT
In this brief report, we describe Mycoplasma pneumoniae infections admitted to our pediatric intensive care unit during 2023-2024. We compare with the previous 6 years and analyze their treatments and outcomes. We observe an increase of cases, half of them with underlying conditions. Hypoxemia was their main severity sign. Viral coinfections were common. Bacterial coinfections appeared to worsen outcomes.
