“…16 The patients who survive ARDS present sequelae affecting respiratory function, health-related quality of life, physical activity, and cognitive and emotional function. 17 The appearance of the influenza A virus (H1N1) 91 years ago gave rise to a global pandemic with catastrophic consequences. In 2009, the influenza A virus (H1N1) was an emergent respiratory agent in Mexico, followed by further cases in other countries, and reaching level 6 (pandemic status) according to the World Health Organization (WHO).…”

“…In 2009, the influenza A virus (H1N1) was an emergent respiratory agent in Mexico, followed by further cases in other countries, and reaching level 6 (pandemic status) according to the World Health Organization (WHO). 16 At present, the literature offers many reports of ARDS secondary to the influenza A H1N1 pandemic of 2009, 17,18 though little is known about the long-term pulmonary function and quality of life of these patients. As a result, the data obtained in our study would indicate important and relatively rapid recovery on the part of patients with this particular type of viral infection, in contrast to situations involving other causes of ARDS.…”

“…The average time of hospitalization was 12.27 days (± 9.05). As for the location, 3 patients were in the Intensive Care Unit for approximately 7.33 days (± 7.09), one being in invasive mechanical ventilation for 12 days and two in noninvasive mechanical ventilation for on average 2,5 days, the other patients demanded extra oxygen supply of low or high low and were hospitalized in the in irmaries (6) and in the Semi-Intensive Care unit (2). The x-ray pattern according to SINAN was classi ied presenting interstitial in iltrate (36.36%); consolidation (36.36%) and the remaining patients (27.27%) a mixed pattern (Table 1).…”

“…A few decades later this virus re-appeared in an overpowering manner in mid 2009. The irst cases were detected precisely on April 11 th 2009 in the city of Veracruz in Mexico, and it went on to becoming a level 6 pandemic in the beginning of June of the same year, thus de ining the gravity of the pathology caused by the virus and its geographical extension (2,3).…”

Introduction:The in luenza A (H1N1) was responsible for the 2009 pandemic, especially with severe pulmonary complications. Objective: To describe characteristics of patients in a university hospital in Curitiba -PR with laboratory diagnosis of in luenza A (H1N1) and its post hospital discharge in the 2009 lung function pandemic Methodology: A retrospective observational study. It was used as a data source the institution Epidemiology Service (SEPIH) and spirometry tests of patients who were admitted in 2009, 18 years without lung disease associated and non-pregnant. Descriptive statistics were used and applied Fisher's exact test for relationship between comorbidity and spirometry tests. Results: There were 84 con irmed cases, of these 11 were eligible for the study with a mean age of 44.27 years (± 9.63) and 63.63% males. 54.54% of the 11 patients had comorbidities associated with systemic arterial hypertension (54.54%), diabetes (18.18%) and late postoperative period of kidney transplantation (18.18%) were the most frequent. Most patients (81.81%) had BMI ≥ 25kg / m². The Spirometry test was performed approximately 40.09 (± 15.27) days after discharge, of these, 5 had restrictive pattern and all had abnormal chest radiograph results. There was no statistically signi icant difference between the results of Spirometry and comorbidities (p=0.24). Conclusions: The group evaluated in this research did not show a direct relationship between Spirometry and comorbidities, but changes in Spirometry in some patients after hospital discharge stood out, suggesting changes in lung function due to in luenza A (H1N1).

Infl uenza A(H1N1) • Average volume assured pressure support Brief History of Novel Pandemic Influenza A H1N1The fi rst cases of the novel infl uenza A(H1N1) virus were reported in April 2009, especially in Mexico and the United States [ 1 , 2 ]. The disease spread rapidly, becoming a pandemic by June 2009. On August 21, 2009, a total of 177 reported cases of novel infl uenza 182.166 A(H1N1) infection, of which 1,799 were fatal [ 2 ]. It has been observed in animal studies that the novel infl uenza virus A has a high replication rate in lung tissue, with a great capacity to invade the lower respiratory tract in humans, causing especially acute fulminant respiratory failure.The acute respiratory failure (ARF) in patients with novel H1N1 disease-its most severe form of presentation-includes diffuse pulmonary infi ltrates and severely compromised oxygenation. The alveolar-arterial gradient of oxygen is also compromised once the acute respiratory syndrome (ARDS) is established.Studies on the management of patients with ARF and infection with novel H1N1 infl uenza are based on the most severe form of respiratory failure, multiple pulmonary infi ltrates, PaO 2 /FiO 2 > 200, and even severe multiple organ damage.Novel H1N1 infl uenza infection is a disease whose lethality is based on the presence of progressive ARF for 48-72 h after presentation of the disease. Hence, there is a period during which the disease is becoming established and therefore when early intervention could halt its progression, thereby reducing its morbidity and mortality.

Síndrome de Distrés Respiratorio Agudo, durante la pandemia de Influenza A H1N1 2009 en Ecuador

Abstract: After applying a strict management protocol for ventilatory management, mortality in this patient group was 16.6. We also stress that obesity and early renal failure were independent risk factors for mortality.
