Which is the relation between malaria and adult respiratory deficiency syndrome (ards)?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

ARDS: Malaria is one of the many possible causes of ards. In the us it would be a low frequency event as malaria isn't common here. In malaria endemic areas, the problem is more common.
