Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome in a Patient With Suspected Influenza: A Case Report
Authors
Abstract
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 end-expiratory pressure, fluid restriction, treatment of infections and avoiding any high‐dose steroids can improve the survival of these patients. In this paper, we present a case of ARDS in a patient with suspected influenza.
