    Non-cardiac pulmonary edema, often caused by sepsis, has a high mortality rate up to 69%. Early identification and management of complications are crucial for improving patient prognosis in intensive care units.

    Area of Science:

    • Critical Care Medicine
    • Pulmonary Medicine
    • Pathophysiology

    Context:

    • Non-cardiac pulmonary edema (NCPE) is a critical condition distinct from cardiogenic causes.
    • Intensive care units (ICUs) frequently encounter NCPE, necessitating a thorough understanding of its multifactorial nature.

    Purpose:

    • To retrospectively analyze the clinical, radiological, and functional characteristics of patients with NCPE.
    • To identify common predisposing factors, treatment modalities, and prognostic indicators for NCPE.

    Summary:

    • NCPE affects ICU patients, with 76% experiencing multiple contributing factors, most commonly sepsis.
    • High overall mortality (69%) was observed, significantly increased by additional organ failure.
    • Mechanical ventilation, corticosteroids, and renal replacement therapies were primary treatments.

    Impact:

    • This study highlights the severe prognosis of NCPE and the critical role of managing underlying causes and complications.
    • Findings underscore the need for optimized treatment strategies in ICUs to improve outcomes for patients with NCPE.
