Abstract
Respiratory viruses are increasingly recognized as a cause of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). The implementation of new diagnostic technologies has facilitated their identification, especially in vulnerable population such as immunocompromised and elderly patients and those with severe cases of pneumonia. In terms of severity and outcomes, viral pneumonia caused by influenza viruses appears similar to that caused by non-influenza viruses. Although several respiratory viruses may cause CAP, antiviral therapy is available only in cases of CAP caused by influenza virus or respiratory syncytial virus. Currently, evidence-based supportive care is key to managing severe viral pneumonia. We discuss the evidence surrounding epidemiology, diagnosis, management, treatment, and prevention of viral pneumonia.
呼吸道病毒越来越被认为是社区获得性肺炎（CAP）的病因之一。新诊断技术的应用促进了对病毒的识别，尤其是在易感人群中，如免疫力低下的老年患者和重症肺炎患者。就严重程度和结果而言，流感病毒引起的病毒性肺炎似乎与非流感病毒引起的病毒性肺炎相似。虽然多种呼吸道病毒均可引起 CAP，但只有流感病毒或呼吸道合胞病毒引起的 CAP 才可使用抗病毒疗法。目前，循证支持治疗是控制重症病毒性肺炎的关键。我们将讨论与病毒性肺炎的流行病学、诊断、管理、治疗和预防有关的证据。
