Anyone ever heard of ards? treatments?

ARDS....: Adult respiratory distress syndrome, ards, is a severe inflammatory response in the lungs. It can be due to many underlying causes including infection, trauma, heart problem, etc. The treatment includes treating the underlying cause and supporting the patient, often including ventilator support, until the lungs have a chance to heal. Not all patients survive this but many do. Good luck!

Yes: We treat ARDS routinely. Low tidal volume mechanical ventilation, supportive care and treating the underlying disorder.
