Abstract:
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a clinical syndrome characterized by progressive hypoxemia and respiratory distress, which occurs in the course of critical illness, and diffuse interstitial and alveolar edema caused by injury of alveolar capillary endothelial cells and alveolar epithelial cells, the overall morbidity and mortality of ARDS are still high. In recent years, with a better understanding of ARDS, more and more researches on this subject have been made, establishing a new concept for the diagnosis and treatment of ARDS. Early respiratory function support and correction of hypoxia are the main measures for treatment of ARDS, and mechanical ventilation is still a primary method for respiratory support of ARDS patients. In this review, we present a summary of the modern advance in diagnosis and respiratory support for treatment of ARDS.
