Title: Clinical Features and Radiological Findings of Adenovirus Pneumonia Associated with Progression to Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: A Single Center Study in 19 Adult Patients

    Snippet: In our study, progression to respiratory failure was unpredictable, showing relatively high rates (12 of 19 patients, 63%) and rapid deterioration. There were no significant differences in baseline clinical characteristics between the ARDS and non-ARDS groups. This result is different from previous reports indicating that geriatric immunocompromised patients are more prone to pneumonia and to developing ARDS than are young immunocompetent patient.....
    Document: In our study, progression to respiratory failure was unpredictable, showing relatively high rates (12 of 19 patients, 63%) and rapid deterioration. There were no significant differences in baseline clinical characteristics between the ARDS and non-ARDS groups. This result is different from previous reports indicating that geriatric immunocompromised patients are more prone to pneumonia and to developing ARDS than are young immunocompetent patients (20) (21) (22) . Our study suggests that, if adenovirus infection manifests as airspace lesions on chest radiograph or CT, aggressive treatment and careful follow-up should be carried out, regardless of patient age and premorbid conditions; patients with these conditions showed a rapid progression of the disease to ARDS.
