متن کاملThe adult respiratory distress syndrome.
The adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) represents a common denominator of acute lung injury leading to alveolar flooding, decreased lung compliance, and altered gas transport. In the absence of specific etiology and therapy, the management of ARDS remains largely supportive. Ubiquitous use of intermittent positive-pressure ventilation with positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) improve...
متن کاملSurfactant Function in Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome*
W e have reported previously on abnormalities of human surf actant in a lung from a patient with the adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) following trauma and shock.’ The lung with ARDS was compared to three normal lungs obtained from transplant donors. An abnormal static pressure-volume curve indicated reduced compliance and abnormally high surfactant film compressibility was found, but ...
متن کاملPredictive Factors of Acute Renal Failure in the Neonates with Respiratory Distress Syndrome
Background: Preterm birth occurs in a large number of pregnancies, and its incidence has been reported to be on the rise. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in the premature infants with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). The present study aimed to determine the predictive factors, clinical courses, and outcomes of AKI in the neonates with the clinical and radiological manifes...
