Successful treatment of severe pneumonia, pyopneumothorax with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome, and septic shock: a case report

ConclusionsThere is a low successful clinical treatment rate for patients with pneumonia, pyopneumothorax with severe ARDS and septic shock. The successful treatment of this patient benefited from early and effective empirical therapy, targeted drug selection in the later stage, adequate closed thoracic drainage, repeated bronchial lavage, early CRRT, an appropriate respiratory support mode and parameter setting, immunotherapy and nutritional support therapy. This paper proposes a reference diagnosis and treatment solution for similar cases.
