Abstract
Adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a clinical entity including different symptoms and clinical findings. It is a sort of “final common pathway” for complex interactions between cellular and biochemical processes, all caused by serious systemic or primary lung injuries. This syndrome first described by Ash-baugh et al. in 1967 [1], is characterized by hypoxemia, diffuse pulmonary infiltrates on chest X-ray, diminished lung compliance and augmented lung capillary permeability with normal cardiac filling pressures (pulmonary capillary wedge pressure).
