BACKGROUND: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a severe complication of malaria that remains largely unstudied. We aim to describe the development of ARDS associated with severe P. falciparum malaria, its management and impact on clinical outcome.
METHODS: Retrospective observational study of adult patients admitted with severe P. falciparum malaria in an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of a tertiary care hospital from Portugal from 2008 to 2018. A multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors associated with the development of ARDS, defined according to Berlin Criteria. Prognosis was assessed by case-fatality ratio, nosocomial infection and length of stay.
RESULTS: 98 patients were enrolled, of which 32 (33%) developed ARDS, a median of 2 days after starting antimalarial medication (IQR 0-4, range 0-6). Length of stay in ICU and in hospital were significantly longer in patients who developed ARDS: 13 days (IQR 10-18) vs 3 days (IQR 2-5) and 21 days (IQR 15-30.5) vs 7 days (IQR 6-10), respectively. Overall case-fatality ratio in ICU was 4.1% and did not differ between groups. The risk of ARDS development is difficult to establish.
CONCLUSION: ARDS is a hard to predict late complication of severe malaria. A low threshold for ICU admission and monitoring should be used. Ideally patients should be managed in a centre with experience and access to advanced techniques.
