Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical typing and staging in diagnosis of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS). Methods Retrospective study was designed to analysis the principal clinical characteristic of SARS and the standard of clinical typing and staging was raised. Comparisons with X-ray in lung, change of lymphocyte subset, PaO_2, SaO_2,and prognosis of disease were performed. Results The standard of SARS clinical typing and staging is four types (light type, ordinary type, heavy type, serious type)and four phases (prodromal period, progres phase, fastigium, recovery phase). The light type is 8/162(4.9%), ordinary type is 69/162 (42.6%), heavy type is 41/162 (25.3%), serious type is (27.2%). Comparisons SARS clinical typing and staging with X-ray in lung, change of lymphocyte subset were found that the more lesion in lung, the lower lymphocyte and its subset, and more serious in clinical typing. Conclusions The standard of clinical typing and staging summarized basic clinical characteristic in SARS, and coincided with progress of SARS. The standard will be help of clinical diagnosis, treatment and judging the prognosis of SARS.
