CDC Asks Physicians To Be On The Lookout For Possible “Hemorrhagic Pneumonia Cases”

• This hemorrhagic pneumonia may be more of a problem than the WHO and CDC says. What is most frightening is that the symptoms are much like the 1918 Spanish flu. So far, amongst the deaths reported in Ukraine, there are no indications of underlying health problems. This is very unlike the earlier manifestation of A/H1N1 swine flu. Most deaths reported were of people with underlying health problems. CDC sent out this alert:
    
  The CDC says that there have been some anecdotal reports of possible “hemorrhagic pneumonia” cases among influenza patients who have died or been hospitalized for severe illness. The phrase “hemorrhagic pneumonia” is somewhat outdated, and most clinicians will not use the term to describe this condition, which can be a very rare complication of viral respiratory infection. Some other terms that can be used to describe this include diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH), which can be caused by infections but doesn’t have to be, and hemorrhagic pneumonitis. In any event, it’s a serious complication that will sometimes lead to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). It occurs very rarely as a complication of seasonal influenza, and there is some concern that it might be more common in H1N1 infections.
   
  The CDC is asking state health officials to look out for possible cases that may involve clusters of patients who might have these symptoms, or a large proportion of cases with these symptoms (e.g., 4 of 5 deaths). They will invariably be among the most severely ill influenza patients (i.e., deaths, ICU patients). This is a hard diagnosis to make, and the most telling symptom may be hemoptysis (bloody sputum, frothy bloody cough), although not all cases will have it.
   
  • Acute onset of rather more severe respiratory infection (dyspnea difficulty breathing is common)
  • Hemoptysis is often seen on initial presentation (~70% of cases)
  • CXR and physical exam will suggest alveolar infiltrates (radiographic opacities)
  • Diagnosis is usually made by BAL (brochoalveolar lavage) and pathology testing (increasingly more hemorrhagic fluid/secretions from sequential BAL
