Evolution of ARDS Definition

The definition of ARDS has evolved to incorporate changes in clinical practice, such as the use of high-flow nasal oxygen and ultrasound. Patients can now fulfill ARDS criteria with infiltrates diagnosed by ultrasound or hypoxia measured by saturations, even with high-flow nasal oxygen. The incorporation of the Gaglia modification allows patients on ward oxygen to be classified under ARDS, facilitating wider inclusion in clinical trials.
