Clinical features like shortness of breath, vomiting, and diarrhea were linked to severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). These symptoms, along with chest imaging findings, help identify SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV) infection.

Area of Science:

  • Infectious Diseases
  • Pulmonology
  • Virology

Background:

  • Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is a serious respiratory illness caused by the SARS coronavirus (SARS-CoV).
  • Understanding the clinical manifestations of SARS is crucial for early diagnosis and patient management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare the clinical features of laboratory-confirmed SARS cases with a control group.
  • To identify specific symptoms and signs associated with SARS-CoV infection.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective comparison of clinical data from 8 U.S. SARS case-patients.
  • Comparison with 65 control subjects who tested negative for SARS-CoV.

Main Results:

  • Shortness of breath, vomiting, and diarrhea were significantly associated with confirmed SARS-CoV infection.

  • Progressive bilateral infiltrates on chest radiograph and the need for supplemental oxygen were also key indicators.
  • These clinical findings aid in differentiating SARS from other respiratory illnesses.

    • Conclusions:

    • Specific clinical features are strongly associated with laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV infection.
    • Early recognition of these symptoms can facilitate timely diagnosis and intervention for SARS patients.
