Abstract
In spite of major advances in intensive care, the morbidity and mortality of patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) remains high, and therapy is at best supportive [1, 2]. ARDS is characterized by refractory hypoxemia secondary to non-hydrostatic pulmonary edema [3] and is precipitated by a range of common predisposing factors not necessarily related to primary lung injury, such as polytrauma, severe burns, sepsis, gastric aspiration, surgery necessitating cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), lung resection, hemorrhagic shock, and oxygen toxicity [4].
