Evolution of ARDS definition and establishment of diagnostic criteria for neonatal ARDS / 国际儿科学杂志

ABSTRACT

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common clinical critical illness and is one of the important causes of neonatal death.Since the first report of ARDS in 1967,its definition and diagnostic criteria have been controversial.The AECC diagnostic criteria proposed by American-European Consensus Conference in 1994 and the Berlin diagnostic criteria issued in 2012 are of great significance for the clinical diagnosis and scientific research of ARDS.In 2017,the first international diagnostic criteria for ARDS in neonates was released,which will play an active role in promoting basic research and clinical practice of neonatal ARDS.This article reviews the evolution of ARDS definitions and diagnostic criteria,as well as the establishment and clinical applications of diagnostic criteria for neonatal ARDS.
