| Abstract: | A study is presented by clinical, microbiological and histological lung tissue response to sepsis in 14 high risk patients who had artificial ventiltion for over 6 days and died. It demonstrates 3 dominant risk factors (1) depression of normal immune mechanisms, (2) aggressive role of anaerobic pathogens (3) harmful effect of prolonged artificial ventilation. |
