Abstract

Objective: The aim of the present study was to analyze the features of patients with positive PCR tests for pandemic influenza A (H1N1) virus who were admitted to our clinic during the 2009 pandemic.Methods: We included ten patients who were hospitalized with the prediagnosis of pneumonia between 21.10.2009-01.12.2009 with positive PCR results for pandemic H1N1 virus, and their files were retrospectively evaluated.Results: Eight of the 10 patients were male and 2 were female. The mean age of the patients was 39.8±14.6 years. Two of the patients were hospital staff and four patients had comorbidities. The most common symptom was shortness of breath (80%), followed by cough (70%), nausea, vomiting and sputum (30%). Leukocytosis and increased sedimentation rate were detected in only 3 of the patients. In eight cases pneumonic infiltrations were detected in chest roentgenogram. Patients were treated with peroral oseltamivir and intravenous levofloxacin. Three cases progressed to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). One patient died of ARDS. Conclusion: In conclusion, close follow-up of patients with viral pneumonia can be life saving

Özet

Amaç: Bu makalede 2009 pandemisi esnasında polimeraz zincir reaksiyonu (PCR) ile pandemik influenza A (H1N1) virüsü pozitifliği saptanarak kliniğimizde izlenen olguların özelliklerini incelemeyi amaçladık. Yöntemler: Kliniğimize 21.10.2009-01.12.2009 tarihleri arasında pnömoni ön tanısı ile yatan ve H1N1 pozitifliği saptanan olguların dosyaları retrospektif olarak değerlendirildi.Bulgular: Pandemik H1N1 virüsü pozitif olan 10 olgunun 8'i erkek 2'si kadındı. Olguların yaş ortalaması 39,8±14,6 yıl idi. İki olgu hastane personeli olup 4 olguda ek hastalık vardı. En sık karşılaşılan semptom nefes darlığı (%80) iken bunu öksürük (%70), bulantı, kusma ve balgam çıkarma (%30) izliyordu. Olguların üçünde lökositoz ve sedim yüksekliği bulunuyordu. Akciğer filminde 8 olguda pnömonik infiltrasyon izlendi. Hastalar oral oseltamivir ve intravenöz levofloksasin ile tedavi edildi. Üç olguda akut respiratuar distres (ARDS) tablosu gelişti. ARDS gelişen olgulardan biri yaşamını kaybetti. Sonuç: Çalışmamızda incelenen olguların klinik, laboratur ve radyolojik verileri literatürle uyumlu bulunmuştur. Viral pnömonili hastaların erken tanı ve tedavisi, yakın takibi hayat kurtarıcıdır
