In this review, we discuss the outcomes of patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We discuss evidence that suggests that a significant proportion of patients with ARDS develop end-stage lung disease and die of pulmonary complications. In carefully selected patients with permanent lung damage, lung transplant can be a life-saving treatment.
在这篇综述中,我们讨论了严重急性呼吸窘迫综合征(ARDS)患者的结局。我们讨论了一些证据,这些证据表明,相当一部分 ARDS 患者会发展为终末期肺病,并死于肺部并发症。在经过精心选择的永久性肺损伤患者中,肺移植可以是一种救命的治疗方法。
