[Adult respiratory distress syndrome in patients with infection].
A grave complication of sepsis is a respiratory distress in adult persons observed by the authors in 11.3% of the examinees. The syndrome of respiratory distress could develop in the presence of toxico-infectious (septic) shock or severe allergic immediate responses to the administration of certain drugs. The main approaches to the treatment of respiratory distress in adult septic patients turned to be glucocorticoids, heparin and recurrent sessions of hemosorption.
