Brief Summary

Parapneumonic pleurisies are a frequent complication of pneumopathies, but therapeutic management is poorly codified. Only the indication of thoracic drainage has benefited from expert recommendations. However, we find in the literature the major importance of early management of infectious pleurisy in order to minimize the sequelae. Pleural ultrasound, sensitive and specific in this pathology could bring us a real interest in terms of diagnostic speed and therefore of care. This study therefore seeks to show that pleural ultrasound can have a major interest in improving the management of patients with parapneumonic pleurisy, by reducing the number of medical treatment failures.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • interet de l'échographie pleurale dans les pleurésies parapneumoniques

    Evaluate the failure of medical treatment, defined as the need to resort to surgery, or death secondary to pleuris

    1 year

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • presence radiological sequelae a pleural effusion at 3 months

    3 months

  • presence radiological sequelae a pleural effusion at 6 months

    6 months

Interventions

pleural ultrasoundDIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Patients will benefit from a daily pleural ultrasound for 96 hours, D1 being the day of hospitalization. The therapeutic course of action will depend on the presence or not, and on the type of pleural effusion according to a pre-established algorithm
