The acute respiratory distress syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2012
The acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is an important cause of acute respiratory failure that is often associated with multiple organ failure. Several clinical disorders can precipitate ARDS, including pneumonia, sepsis, aspiration of gastric contents, and major trauma. Physiologically, ARDS is characterized by increased permeability pulmonary

Acute respiratory distress syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Scientific Research, 2014
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is characterized by non-cardiogenic pulmonary oedema and respiratoy failure. In 1994, ARDS was defined by the American – European Consensus Conference (AECC) and since then issues regarding the reliability and

Lung Ultrasound for the Diagnosis and Management of Neonatal Respiratory Distress Syndrome: A Minireview

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2022
Lung ultrasound (LUS) is useful for diagnosis of respiratory distress syndrome in neonates. Recently, it has been proved to play an important role in the management of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (RDS).

open access: yes, 1998
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 ...

Adherence to Lung Protective Ventilation in Patients With Coronavirus Disease 2019

open access: yesCritical Care Explorations, 2021
OBJECTIVES:. Prior studies have demonstrated suboptimal adherence to lung protective ventilation among patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome. A common barrier to providing this evidence-based practice is diagnostic uncertainty.

Extracorporeal support for patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Extracorporeal membrane oxygen (ECMO) has been used for many years in patients with life-threatening hypoxaemia and/or hypercarbia. While early trials demonstrated that it was associated with poor outcomes and extensive haemorrhage, the technique has ...

Acute respiratory distress syndrome

open access: yesJAAPA, 2022
ABSTRACT Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a severe, often fatal, lung condition frequently seen in patients in the ICU. ARDS is triggered by an inciting event such as pneumonia or sepsis, which is followed by an inappropriate host inflammatory response that results in pulmonary edema and impaired gas exchange, and may progress to
