Clinical characteristics and risk factors for mortality in pneumonia-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome patients: a single center retrospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Pathogenic diversity may have contributed to the high mortality of pneumonia-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome (p-ARDS). Metagenomics next-generation sequencing (mNGS) serves as a valuable diagnostic tool for early pathogen identification. However, its clinical utility in p-ARDS remains understudied. There are still limited researches on the etiology, clinical characteristics and risk factors for 28-day mortality in p-ARDS patients.

Methods

A single center retrospective cohort study of 75 p-ARDS patients was conducted. Patients were categorized into survival and deceased groups based on their 28-day outcomes. A comprehensive clinical evaluation was conducted, including baseline characteristics, laboratory indicators, outcomes and pathogen identificati
