AbstractNon cardiogenic pulmonary edema (PE) is frequently observed during the postoperative period. 56 patients with postoperative PE were divided into two groups: ARDS, acute respiratory distress syndrom and NHPE, non hemodynamic PE. The incidence of primary pulmonary infection and pulmonary superinfection were investigated. Both groups were not different except for the level of PaO2 lower in ARDS. Mortality was higher in ARDS (80%) than in NHPE (42%). Pulmonary primary infection and superinfection were respectively observed in 33 and 10%, and 23 and 15% of ARDS and NHPE. Blood cultures were more frequently positive during abdominal sepsis than during pneumonia. Viral etiology was thrice noted in 13 pneumonitis. Value of diagnostic methods for respiratory infections is discussed.
