Abstract
Introduction: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) still represents a major challenge with high mortality rates and altered quality of life. Many well-designed studies have failed to improve ARDS outcomes. Heterogeneity of etiologies, mechanisms of lung damage, different lung mechanics, and different treatment approaches may explain these failures. At the era of personalized medicine, ARDS phenotyping is not only a field of research, but a bedside consideration when implementing therapy. ARDS has moved from being a simple syndrome to a more complex area of subgrouping. Intensivists must understand these phenotypes and therapies associated with a better outcome.
Areas covered: After a brief sum-up of the different type of ARDS phenotypes, we will present some relevant therapy that may be impacted by phenotyping. A focus on pharmacotherapy will be realized before a section on non-pharmaceutical strategies. Eventually, we will highlight the limits of our knowledge of phenotyping and the pitfalls of personalized medicine.
Expert opinion: Biological and morphological ARDS phenotypes are now well studied. The future of ARDS therapy will go through phenotyping that allows a personalized medication for each patient. However, a better assessment of these phenotypes is required, and clinical trials should be conducted with an ad-hoc phenotyping before randomization.
