Since the 2012 Berlin Definition of the Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), several developments have supported the need for an expansion of the definition, including the use of high-flow nasal oxygen (HFNO), expanding the use of pulse oximetry in place of arterial blood gases, use of ultrasound for chest imaging, and the need for applicability in resource-limited settings. Join Eric as he dives into the previous ARDS definitions, the pathophysiology around "PseudoARDS," and the new global definition.
