【 摘 要 】

The medical records of 27 patients with hantavirus pulmonary syndrome were analyzed according to the need for invasive mechanical ventilation in relation to the following data up on hospital admission: age, gender, fever, cough, dyspnea, systolic arterial blood pressure, heart rate, levels of hemoglobin, hematocrit, leukocytes, lymphocytes, platelets, creatinine and arterial blood gases. The volume infused during the first 24 hours after admission, the use of inotropic agents, the use of corticosteroids and the patient outcomes were also evaluated. A favorable outcome was related to systolic blood pressure3 100mmHg, heart rate lower than 100 beats per minute, creatinine below 1.6mg/dl, arterial blood pH3 7.35, bicarbonate higher than 15mEq/dl, oxygen saturation higher than 84.1%, lower rehydration volume in the first 24 hours of hospitalization and no use of inotropic agents. Absence of clinical and laboratory signs of circulatory shock up on admission was associated with a favorable outcome of the patients.
