Viral Pneumonia and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Abstract: Respiratory viruses are a common cause of severe pneumonia and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in adults. The advent of new diagnostic technologies, particularly multiplex reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, have increased the recognition of viral respiratory infections in critically ill adults. Supportive care for adults with ARDS caused by respiratory viruses is similar to the care of patients with ARDS from other causes. Although antiviral therapy is available for some respiratory vi… Show more

“…11À13,16,34 However, we do not have any consensus that these CA-RVs are directly related to poor outcome and attributable mortality in this population. 11,12,34 In addition, there is no standard guideline for prevention or treatment of CA-RVs among transplant recipients and non-transplant critically ill patients in ICU. Therefore, the guideline for indication of surveillance or diagnostic tests as well as treatment of specific CA-RVs in unique high-risk subpopulation through further prospective studies needs to be standardized to implement practices effectively.…”

“…Patients with pneumonia, sepsis, gastric aspiration, or chest trauma may readily develop ARDS. Respiratory viruses, such as influenza virus, Middle East respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus (MERS), SARS-CoV, rhinovirus, respiratory syncytial virus, parainfluenza virus, human metapneumovirus, and adenoviruses may cause viral pneumonia and severe ARDS ( Shah and Wunderink, 2017 ). SARS-CoV-2 emerged in 2019 and caused the COVID-19 outbreak.…”

“…ARDS is a life-threatening complication featured by diffuse alveolar damage [22]. The incidence of ARDS varies widely, ranging from 1.5 patients per 100,000 people to nearly 79 patients per 100,000 people; European countries report lower incidence than the United States; mortality also varies due to the severity, age, and underlying medical conditions [23][24][25][26][27]. No monotherapy has been found to alter the latent pathological process of ARDS to date.…”
