Legionella community-acquired pneumonia necessitating veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for severe acute respiratory distress syndrome has been reported in adults. However, few options remain in cases of refractory hypoxemia on veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Herein, we describe adjunctive extended therapeutic hypothermia for refractory hypoxemia despite veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for successful management of severe acute respiratory distress syndrome secondary to Legionella.
成人中已报告军团菌社区获得性肺炎导致严重急性呼吸窘迫综合征,需要进行静脉-静脉体外膜肺氧合。然而,在静脉-静脉体外膜肺氧合治疗难治性低氧血症的情况下,可用的选择很少。在此,我们描述了尽管采用静脉-静脉体外膜肺氧合治疗难治性低氧血症,但仍采用辅助性延长治疗性低温,成功治疗了军团菌继发的严重急性呼吸窘迫综合征。
