what is the current clinical syndrome definitino of ARDS?
|
acute onset
bilateral infiltrate no HF paO2/FiO2 <200 |
|
what are the radiologic findings is ARDS
|
cloudy patchy bilateral ans assymetric alveolar inflitrates
|
|
what pathologic changes occur in ARDS
|
diffuse alveolar damage
hyaline membranes (dead type II cells) |
|
direct lunge injury causes leading to ARDS
3 |
pneumonia (worst)
asp of gastric acid fat emoblism |
|
indirect lung injury leading to ARDS
|
spesis
trauma with shock acute pancreatitis drug overdose! |
|
causes of death in ARDS (2)
|
sepsis 50
resp. failure 25 |
|
what are the 4 phases of ARDS
|
1 exudative- develop hypoxemia
2 proliferative- lung comliance dec 3 fibrotic siffness worsens 4 recovery or death |
|
exudative phase:
|
develop hypox, bilat lung infltrates, put on ventilaro, protein fluid fills aveolar space, neturos invade, type II pneumos dies- hyaline membrane; no more surfactan
|
|
proliferative phase:
|
lung compliance dec, mor stiff, no surfact, requires higher pressure to vent, macrophages activate, cytokine storm
|
|
fibrotic phase:
|
stiffness becomes worse, lung responds by mobilizing fibroblasts to repair damage, if fails, die
|
|
lung function of ARDS survivors:
|
they can get up to 80% back
|
|
treatment of ARDS:
|
treat underlying condition
|
|
what is the only successful treatment for ARDS?
|
low tidal volume ventilation (6-7 ml/kg)
often pts given cistracurium so they cant overide ventilatro |
