ARDS is a respiratory condition characterized by hypoxemia, and stiff lungs, without mechanical ventilation most patients would die. ARDS represents a response to many different insults/injuries and evolves through different phases: alveolar capillary damage to lung resolution to a fibro-proliferative phase. The pulmonary epithelial and endothelial cellular damage is characterized by inflammation, apoptosis, necrosis and increased alveolar-capillary permeability, which lead to the development of alveolar edema. .
