ACUTE RESPIRATORY DISTRESS SYNDROME

WHAT DOES ACUTE RESPIRATORY DISTRESS SYNDROME MEAN IN ENGLISH?

"Acute respiratory distress syndrome", previously known as "respiratory distress syndrome", "adult respiratory distress syndrome", or "shock lung", is a severe, life-threatening medical condition characterized by widespread inflammation in the lungs. Although it can be triggered by a primary respiratory infection, such as pneumonia, it is more often a sequelae of sepsis or significant trauma. ARDS is a disease of the lung parenchyma that leads to impaired gas exchange. It is associated with pulmonary cytokine release, impaired endothelial barriers, loss of surfactant, fluid accumulation in the distal airspaces, and fibrotic changes. The mortality rate varies widely based on disease severity and patient age, with an average mortality somewhere between 20% and 50%. The acronym ARDS formerly signified "adult respiratory distress syndrome" to differentiate it from "infant respiratory distress syndrome", which occurs in premature infants. However, as this type of pulmonary edema also occurs in children, ARDS has gradually shifted to mean "acute" rather than "adult". The differences from the typical infant syndrome remain.

Definition of acute respiratory distress syndrome in the English dictionary

The definition of acute respiratory distress syndrome in the dictionary is a life-threatening respiratory condition in which trauma to the lungs leads to inflammation, rapid accumulation of fluid in the alveoli, a decrease in the amount of oxygen in the blood and respiratory distress.
