“…Acute amiodarone‐related interstitial pneumonitis is a rare and more aggressive form of the disease, most often occurring in critically ill and post‐surgery patients. Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and alveolar hemorrhage are the most common pattern of amiodarone pneumonitis, our case also encountered ARDS despite corticosteroid treatment 16,17 …”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
