| description | Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a clinical syndrome consisting of tachypnea, refractory
hypoxemia, and diffuse opacities on chest radiographs after infection or trauma which ultimately leads
to respiratory failure. The principles of treatment are based on patient care in ICU, mechanical ventilation
and medical treatments. By using lower plateau, less tidal volume, higher positive end-expiratory
pressure, fluid restriction, treatment of infections and avoiding any high‐dose steroids can improve the
survival of these patients. In this paper, we present a case of ARDS in a patient with suspected influenza. |
