Reclassifying Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome [PDF]
American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2018 The ratio of PaO2 to FiO2 (P/F) defines acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) severity and suggests appropriate therapies.We investigated 1) whether a 150-mm-Hg P/F threshold within the range of moderate ARDS (100-200 mm Hg) would define two subgroups that were more homogeneous; and 2) which criteria led the clinicians to apply extracorporeal ...

The Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome [PDF]
Baylor University Medical Center Proceedings, 2015 The acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a major cause of acute respiratory failure. Its development leads to high rates of mortality, as well as short- and long-term complications, such as physical and cognitive impairment. Therefore, early recognition of this syndrome and application of demonstrated therapeutic interventions are essential to
