Abstract

Adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a type of acute respiratory failure resulting from altered ventilation-perfusion ratios leading to hypoxemia, hypo- or hypercapnia and decreased lung compliance. Asbaugh and Petty (1) used the term ARDS for the first time in 1967 to describe the clinical picture of diffuse pulmonary infiltration on chest X-ray, impairment of oxygenation and pulmonary congestion. However, the existence of this syndrome was already reported after the first World War by Weed and McAfee (2) who discussed the respiratory failure as a sequela of wound shock.
