Abstract
Synopsis: In patients with moderate-to-severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), defined as an arterial oxygen partial pressure/ fractional inspired oxygen (PaO2/FiO2) of 200 mmHg or less with a positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) of 10 cm H2O or greater and FiO2 > 0.5, administration of dexamethasone within 24 hours of ARDS onset led to more ventilator-free days, and a reduction of all-cause mortality with no difference in adverse events.

期刊介绍:
Clinical Pulmonary Medicine provides a forum for the discussion of important new knowledge in the field of pulmonary medicine that is of interest and relevance to the practitioner. This goal is achieved through mini-reviews on focused sub-specialty topics in areas covered within the journal. These areas include: Obstructive Airways Disease; Respiratory Infections; Interstitial, Inflammatory, and Occupational Diseases; Clinical Practice Management; Critical Care/Respiratory Care; Colleagues in Respiratory Medicine; and Topics in Respiratory Medicine.
