Lower respiratory tract colonization and infection during severe acute respiratory distress syndrome: incidence and diagnosis.
Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is difficult to detect and is often unsuspected during adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We prospectively evaluated lower respiratory tract (LRT) colonization and infection in 30 patients with severe ARDS (PaO2/FIO2 ratio < 150 mm Hg), using repeated quantitative cultures of plugged telescopic catheter (PTC) specimens taken blindly via the endotra...

Copyright © 2008 Massachusetts Medical Society. A cute lower respiratory tract infections are a persistent and pervasive public health problem. They cause a greater burden of disease worldwide than human immunodeficiency virus infection, malaria, cancer, or heart attacks.1 In the United States, they cause more disease and death than any other infection, and there has been little change in morta...
متن کاملAcute Respiratory Distress Syndrome in a Patient With Suspected Influenza: A Case Report
Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is a clinical syndrome consisting of tachypnea, refractory hypoxemia, and diffuse opacities on chest radiographs after infection or trauma which ultimately leads to respiratory failure. The principles of treatment are based on patient care in ICU, mechanical ventilation and medical treatments. By using lower plateau, less tidal volume, higher positive ...
متن کاملDiagnosis of acute respiratory distress syndrome in nosocomial pneumonia.
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) complicates nosocomial pneumonias (NPn) in 12% to 33% of patients with associated increases in mortality of up to 80%. A timely diagnosis of ARDS with NPn is, however, problematic. The aim of this investigation was to improve the diagnosis and treatment of the early stages of ARDS with NPn. A total of 82 cancer and multiple trauma patients were enrolle...
متن کاملAcute respiratory distress syndrome related to Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection
M. pneumoniae respiratory infection is usually mild and self-limiting. We report a case of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) due to M. pneumoniae infection in a 60 years old woman. Quick diagnosis was established by multiplex PCR assay for detection of pneumonia-causing bacteria. Outcome was favorable. The factors accounting for the severity of pneumonia caused by M. pneumoniae are dis...
