Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome and Fluid Management: Finding the Perfect Balance

Summary of “Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome and Fluid Management: Finding the Perfect Balance” (J. Clin. Med. 2025, 14, 2067) Abstract Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is characterized by alveolar epithelial injury leading to capillary leak and alveolar flooding. While fluid therapy is often essential in early resuscitation, excessive fluid administration may exacerbate pulmonary edema, impair

Anion gap predicting 90-Day mortality and guiding furosemide use in ARDS

Summary of “Anion gap predicting 90-Day mortality and guiding furosemide use in ARDS” Abstract This retrospective cohort study assessed whether the serum anion gap (AG), a marker of metabolic acidosis, could predict 90-day mortality in ARDS patients and guide furosemide use. Using the MIMIC-IV database, 11,227 patients with ARDS were analyzed. Higher AG levels correlated

Recent Advances and Future Directions in Extracorporeal Carbon Dioxide Removal

Abstract Extracorporeal carbon dioxide removal (ECCO2R) is an emerging technique designed to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) levels in venous blood while enabling lung-protective ventilation or alleviating the work of breathing. Unlike high-flow extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), ECCO2R operates at lower blood flows (0.4–1.5 L/min), making it less invasive, with smaller cannulas and simpler devices. Despite
