Abstract:
Acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS) is a serious disease that remains an ongoing diagnostic and therapeutic challenge.The American-European Consensus Conference definition of ARDS has been applied since its publication in 1994 and has helped to improve knowledge about ARDS.However,18 years later,in 2011,the European Intensive Medicine Society requested a team of international experts to meet in Berlin to review the ARDS definition.This article discusses the evolution of the definition of ARDS to the new Berlin definition of ARDS proposed in 2012 and its novel iterative refinement.
