COVID-19 with pleural effusion as the initial symptom: a case study analysis

Abstract

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a newly identified strain of coronavirus in the human body and was reported in Wuhan at the end of 2019. So far, the epidemic is continuing and very serious, with the number of infections and deaths increasing. Despite active investigations around the world to better understand the dynamics of transmission and the scope of clinical disease, COVID-19 continues to spread rapidly from person to person. The common signs and symptoms of SARS-CoV-2 infection include fever, fatigue, dry cough, and dyspnea; in severe cases, patients may have acute respiratory distress syndrome, septic shock, metabolic acidosis difficult to treat and coagulation disorder. However, some patients who test positive for SARS-CoV-2 in their respiratory tract may not have such clinical signs and symptoms. This report presents a case study analysis of a patient admitted in the Fourth Taiyuan People's Hospital, who had suffered traumatic injuries from a car accident and survived COVID-19, with pleural effusion as the initial symptom. We report a case of 2019-NCOV with pleural effusion as the first symptom. Describe in detail the differential diagnosis, diagnosis, clinical management, and cure of this case. In order to combat the novel CoronaviruscoVID-19 in the process to provide lessons and help.

Pleural effusion in a COVID-19 patient

“…Some studies show that the frequency of pleural effusions varies depending on age [11,13]. In their study involving 552 patients, Majidi et al showed that pleural effusion developed more often in patients aged 50 years and older [13]. In their study, Wei et al also Bolesnica je u toku hospitalizacije lečena po protokulu za lečenje pacijenata sa KOVID-19 oboljenjem, uz postepeno poboljšanje, povlačenje simptoma bolesti i oslobađanje od kiseoničke potpore.…”

“…In our patient, as well, a repeat X-ray, four days later, showed that the pleural effusion had disappeared (Figure 3). Some studies show that the frequency of pleural effusions varies depending on age [11,13]. In their study involving 552 patients, Majidi et al showed that pleural effusion developed more often in patients aged 50 years and older [13].…”

“…Takođe, kod naše bolesnice, na ponovljenom snimku načinjenom nakon četiri dana, nije bilo pleuralnog izliva (Slika 3). Neka istraživanja ukazuju na to da učestalost pleuralnih izliva varira sa godinama [11,13]. U svom istraživanju na 552 pacijenta, Madžidi i saradnici su pokazali da se pleuralni izliv češće stvara kod osoba starosti pedeset godina i više [13].…”

I Vei i saradnici su u svom istraživanju pokazali da su pacijenti, koji su u toku bolesti razvili pleuralni izliv, bili značajno starije životne dobi (60,8 ± 15,4 godina) i imali su u istoriji bolesti osnovnu respiratornu bolest [11].…”

Effect of Hartmann number on Natural Convection of Pleural Effusion

“…Et al [11] perturbation technique experienced over a moving with the influence of chemical reactionon semiinfinite vertical plateat the time of mixed convection. R. Muthucumaraswamy [12] his problem discussedwith uniform suction onregularly moving influence of a homogeneous first order chemical reaction in the vertical surface.Swetaprovo Chaudhuri et al [13] established pandemic droplet evaporation and the breathing droplet direction using a determined physical norm mathematically.Jing Zhang et al [14] analysed infected case report, who experience traumatic suffering from a vehicle accident and also persistCOVID-19,in the initial symptom with pleural effusion obtained. In the present study wedeal with new vision, how pleural fluid is contaminated due to novel corona virus occurrence of human respiratory tract with existing pulmonary disorders.…”
