Redefining ARDS: a paradigm shift

Jesús Villar,
Tamas Szakmany,
Giacomo Grasselli
et al.

Abstract: Although the defining elements of “acute respiratory distress syndrome” (ARDS) have been known for over a century, the syndrome was first described in 1967. Since then, despite several revisions of its conceptual definition, it remains a matter of debate whether ARDS is a discrete nosological entity. After almost 60 years, it is appropriate to examine how critical care has modeled this fascinating syndrome and affected patient’s outcome. Given that the diagnostic criteria of ARDS (e.g., increased pulmonary vas… Show more

“…ARDS is a pulmonary disorder defined by non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema, resulting in severe hypoxemia and is treated with protective mechanical ventilation and often requires deep levels of sedation to promote ventilation synchrony and prevent patient self-induced lung inury[ 63 , 64 ]. In 2020 with the COVID-19 pandemic, patients in ICUs across the world developed ARDS and had extremely high sedative requirements, and often required neuromuscular blocking agent administration to allow for lung protective ventilation[ 65 , 66 ].…”

“…It presents with non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema, sudden onset of dyspnea, refractory hypoxemia, reduced lung compliance, and widespread pulmonary in ltrates observable through X-ray and CT imaging. Recent reclassi cations have introduced distinctions based on whether patients require intubation [1][2][3]. ARDS's treatment is continuously evolving, aiming to identify and manage the primary pathology causing ARDS.…”
