Interleukin-8 and adult respiratory distress syndrome.
The adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), a process of diffuse inflammation and increased permeability of pulmonary microvasculature, carries a high morbidity and mortality (40-90%) (1). Neutrophils have received a great deal of attention as the primary effector cells of this disease process. There is a marked increase in the numberofneutrophils in the alveolar spaces. High concentrations...
متن کاملInterleukin-8 and development of adult respiratory distress syndrome in at-risk patient groups.
Neutrophils have been implicated in the pathogenesis of the adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We have measured concentrations of the neutrophil attractant interleukin-8 in blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BAL) from patients at risk of ARDS. We studied 29 patients from three groups at risk of developing ARDS: multiple trauma (n = 16), perforated bowel (n = 6), and pancreatitis (...
متن کاملAcute (Adult) Respiratory Distress Syndrome
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common and devastating condition which can affect all adult patients eg, medical, surgical and obstetric patients. It occurs when non-cardiogenic pulmonary oedema (secondary to acute damage to the alveoli) leads to acute respiratory failure. Although the terms ARDS and ALI are used interchangeably, the American-European Consensus Conference Commit...

متن کاملThe adult respiratory distress syndrome.
The adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) represents a common denominator of acute lung injury leading to alveolar flooding, decreased lung compliance, and altered gas transport. In the absence of specific etiology and therapy, the management of ARDS remains largely supportive. Ubiquitous use of intermittent positive-pressure ventilation with positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) improve...
