Keywords:
viral-bacterial pneumonia, influenza A N1N1, respiratory distress - syndrome.Abstract
The influenza virus A (H1N1) "swine flu" was the new threat to humanity, which was first detected among sick people in Mexico in the spring of 2009. Nowadays, according to WHO (2009) epidemiology of pandemic virus infection (H1N1), shows that the highest incidence was observed among children and youth, and it shows a wide spectrum of clinical symptoms, ranging from light untemperatured diseases of upper respiratory tract, including subfebrile flu-like states, ending severe or even fatal complications, in most cases fast-progressive viral-bacterial pneumonia.
Researchers from Mexico, led by Guillermo Dominguez-Cherit with the Instituto Nacional de Ciencias Medicas Nutricion Salvador Zubiran in the survey data analyzed 899 patients with a new influenza are treated from 24 March until June 1, 2009 intensive care patients was 58 (6.5%) , including 29 confirmed cases of infection with influenza A strain H1N1, 14 - and 15 probable – suspected.
Researchers in Australia say that the course was characterized by the development of new flu severe respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), and patients requiring hospitalization in intensive care and artificial ventilation (artificial pulmonary ventilation) with trans-membrane oxygenation.
Next - research scientists in Brazil, the scientists have identified two of the most vulnerable age groups of patients: children under 5 years of age and 20-29 years. Lethal completed 11.2% of cases of acute PPC.
During the epidemic of influenza in October and November 2009 in Ukraine, was clearly identified that physicians have dealt with the outbreak of seasonal influenza in combination with influenza A Н1N1, the situation was difficult, especially in western Ukraine, where in these months was the highest incidence and mortality from pneumonia.
This article gives an overview of the literature relating to international experience to overcome the pandemic influenza virus strain H1N1, its effects and complications, as well as experience in medicine of the Precarpathia against the development of complications in this disease.
