AbstractThe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) can arise from a range of predisposing insults. Mortality rates are high for patients with ARDS and survivors require extended and expensive intensive care treatment. This article presents evidence that implicates the production of toxic and damaging reactive oxygen species in the pathogenesis of ARDS.
