简要总结

Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome is a catastrophic acute respiratory illness: ARDS is a serious acute respiratory illness that can affect even previously healthy individuals. This condition has varied etiologies, notably pneumonia, sepsis, aspiration and trauma. While common etiologies exist in the countries world wide, there is a regional difference influenced by the socio economic conditions, disease prevalence and access to care. . Examples include cases of ARDS seen in Malaria, Dengue or Tuberculosis in India are not prevalent in other countries. Recently the definition of ARDS has been revised. An important new component of the new Berlin definition of ARDS is the identification of a predisposing condition, and the development of new or worsening respiratory symptoms within seven days of that insult. This timeframe gives a clearly specified window following the onset of a predisposing condition during which interventions to prevent development of ARDS may be administered.

Critical Care is a new specialty worldwide. It is growing and is now an established field in India. One of the objectives of this proposal is to bring together likeminded committed intensivists and institutions to focus on ARDS. We begin with gathering a snapshot of a well-defined entity with a significant mortality to further characterize it in India. Although critical illness seems same for the suffering patient, its etiology and effect on the family seem to be more regionally influenced.
