Overview of the Cardiopulmonary
Clinical Manifestations Associated
with ACUTE RESPIRATORY
DISTRESS SYNDROME
The following clinical manifestations result from
the pathophysiologic mechanisms caused (or
activated) by Atelectasis (see Figure 9-7),
Alveolar Consolidation (see Figure 9-8), and
Increased Alveolar-Capillary Membrane
Thickness (see Figure 9-9)—the major
anatomic alterations of the lungs associated
with ARDS (see Figure 27-1).

General Management of
ARDS
Common ARDS mechanical ventilation
strategy:
Slide 28
Low-tidal volumes and high respiratory rates
4 to 8 mL/kg
Ventilatory rates as high as 35 breaths per minute
PEEP and/or CPAP—to offset atelectasis
Copyright © 2006 by Mosby, Inc.
General Management of
ARDS
The therapeutic goals of low-tidal volume
ventilation
1. Decrease high transpulmonary pressure
2. Reduce overdistention of the lungs
3. Decrease barotrauma
