Abstract:
The acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) can be induced by viral diseases.Among these viruses that can affect the lung and cause ARDS,pandemic viruses head the list,with influenza viruses H1N1,H5N1,coronavirus and measles.Apart from these pandemic viruses,respiratory viruses such as adenovirus are sometimes responsible for viral pneumonia and ARDS.Other than antiviral drug,management of ARDS due to these virusesdoes not differ from that for ARDS caused by other diseases,including lung protective ventilation strategy,prone position ventilation,conservative fluid therapy,analgesia and sedation,ECMO and management of air leak.
