Surfactant function in neonates with respiratory distress syndrome [PDF]
The function of pulmonary surfactant of a group of 14 preterm neonates (birth weight 907 +/- 60 g) who suffered from severe respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) and who had received exogenous bovine lipid extracted surfactant on the first day of life was ...

We report a case of CO2 embolism complicated by severe ARDS with refractory hypoxia requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy, which resulted in a favourable outcome. ABSTRACT Laparoscopic surgeries have revolutionised surgical practice due to their advantages, including minimal invasiveness, fewer postoperative complications ...

Early 72‐h dynamic changes in key physiological and laboratory parameters predict extubation failure and 28‐day mortality in severe pneumonia‐induced ARDS. Extubation failure is strongly associated with increased mortality, highlighting the clinical value of dynamic monitoring for early risk stratification in ICU patients.
