?:abstract
  • Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a rapidly progressive condition that is caused by the disruption of the alveolarcapillary barrier About a quarter of all patients on mechanical ventilation develop ARDS, and although our understanding of the pathogenetic mechanisms of ARDS has evolved over time and mortality has since declined, the condition still poses a significant threat to this day Treatment principles include management of the underlying disease and a lung-protective mechanical ventilation strategy to avoid ventilator-induced lung injury Patients who have survived the condition often experience a loss of quality of life Furthermore, they have an increased risk of developing cognitive impairment and depression Thus, it should be concluded that ARDS is a serious and debilitating condition, for which it is important to find new treatment options Not to mention that it is crucial to implement the best current measures available to avoid complications and to improve patients\' quality of life
