Management of Complicated Parapneumonic Effusions
American Review of Respiratory Disease, 1993Pneumonia remains one of the most common infections in both the community and the hospital (1), and it is associated with a 36 to 57% incidence of pleural effusions (2-4), resulting in an estimated one million people a year in the United States developing parapneumonic effusions. Parapneumonic effusions (pleural fluids associated with pneumonia) may be

Management of parapneumonic pleural effusion
Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2001Parapneumonic pleural effusion is a common and potentially serious complication of pneumonia. The management of parapneumonic pleural effusion involves early diagnosis, adequate empiric antibiotic cover, and appropriate risk categorization. High-risk patients require safe and expedient drainage of the infected pleural space.

Pleural Fluid pH in Parapneumonic Effusions
Chest, 1976The pH and carbon dioxide tension were measured in 24 consecutive parapneumonic effusions, along with the leukocyte count, leukocytic differential count, and levels of glucose and protein. Three categories of parapneumonic effusions were characterized: (1) empyemas; (2) benign (nonloculated) effusions; and (3) loculated effusions.

BACKGROUND Point-of-care ultrasonography (POCUS) is increasingly used for both diagnostic and guided procedures. Increasingly, POCUS has been used for identification of pneumonia and to assist in the differentiation of pleural effusions, as well as to ...

Parapneumonic effusion and empyema
Therapeutische Umschau, 2001Parapneumonische Pleuraergüsse finden sich bei bis zu 40% der Pneumonienpatienten. In der Regel stellen sie jedoch kein klinisches Problem dar. Ist bei einem pneumonischen Krankheitsbild auf dem Röntgenbild des Thorax oder in der sonographischen Untersuchung ein Erguss nachweisbar, dessen Ausdehnung eine gefahrlose Punktion (Thorakozentese) möglich ...
