Background: Polytrauma patients are expected to have a higher risk of mortality than that obtained by the summation of expected mortality owing to their individual injuries. This study was designed to investigate the outcome of patients with polytrauma, which was defined using the new Berlin definition, as cases with an Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) ≥ 3 for two or more different body regions a...

have a very short duration of illness and have excellent outcomes, but our ability to clearly define this group of patients at the outset remains limited. If we cannot be sure in whom to intervene, any economic benefit from successful therapy quickly deteriorates due to massive overtreatment. Finally we have to consider what downstream adverse effects there may be from intervening. Both glucoco...

I echo the call for a real change in the diagnosis of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), as put forward in the recent editorial by Phillips [1]. Whilst there are real limitations regarding availability, feasibility and interpretation of extravascular lung water (EVLW), it remains one of the few clinically available quantitative parameters for assessment of the severity of lung injury. ...
