Dr. Elisabeth Riviello, an Assistant Professor at Harvard Medical School, and Dr. Theogen Twagirumugabe, a leading Anesthesiologist from Rwanda, dive into redefining Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). They discuss the limitations of previous definitions and highlight the importance of a universal ARDS definition to enhance patient care globally. The conversation also touches on challenges in oxygen saturation measurement, innovative diagnostic tools like lung ultrasound, and the role of non-invasive ventilation in ARDS management, advocating for improved practices in resource-limited settings.
