Study Overview

Brief Summary

Current clinical prediction scores for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) have limited positive predictive value. No studies have evaluated predictive kinetics of plasma biomarkers and receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) polymorphisms in a broad population of critically ill patients or as an adjunct to clinical prediction scores.

The main objective of the investigators study is to evaluate the predictive values of plasma soluble RAGE levels for the onset of ARDS in a high risk population of patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU).

One of the investigators goals is to improve early identification of patients at risk for ARDS in order to better implement preventive stategies prior to ARDS development.

The primary outcome is the occurrence of ARDS during the first week after admission to the ICU.

Detailed Description

BACKGROUND :

ARDS is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients. Only few pharmacological treatments are available, with limited evidence of efficacy.

The development of efficient preventive stategies is limited by the investigators inability to predict which patients are likely to develop ARDS. The Lung Injury predicition Score (LIPS) has been developed to identify patients at high risk for ARDS, but its predictive value remains limited.

The receptor for advanced glycation end product (RAGE) is now identified as a marker of alveolar type I cell injury. RAGE is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily that acts as a multiligand receptor which is involved in propagating inflammatory responses. Plasma levels of sRAGE are correlated with clinical and radiologic severity in ARDS patients.

The investigators main objective is to assess the predictive values of plasma sRAGE and esRAGE levels, as well as their evolution over the first 24 hours after admission, for the onset of ARDS in high risk patients.
