Mashup Score: 7The Berlin definition of acute respiratory distress syndrome: should patients receiving high-flow nasal oxygen be included? - 4 year(s) ago
The 2012 Berlin definition of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) provided validated support for three levels of initial arterial hypoxaemia that correlated with mortality in patients receiving ventilatory support. Since 2015, high-flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) has become widely used as an effective therapeutic support for acute respiratory failure, most recently in patients with severe…

Mashup Score: 28Trends and Geographic Variation in Acute Respiratory Failure and ARDS Mortality in the United States - 4 year(s) ago
The ARF-related mortality increased at approximately 3.4% annually, and ARDS-related mortality showed a lack of decline in the last 5 years. These data contextualize important health information to guide priorities for research, clinical care, and policy, especially during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic in the United States.

Mashup Score: 3Dosing Fluids in Early Septic Shock - 4 year(s) ago
Early IV fluid administration remains one of the modern pillars of sepsis treatment; however, questions regarding amount, type, rate, mechanism of action, and even the benefits of fluid remain unanswered. Administering the optimal fluid volume is important, because overzealous fluid resuscitation can precipitate multiorgan failure, prolong mechanical ventilation, and worsen patient outcomes….
