Key Points
Key Points
These recommendations apply only to patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and do not address questions related to pharmacologic therapies to facilitate mechanical ventilation (e.g., neuromuscular blockade), adjunctive measures (e.g., inhaled vasodilators), and other ventilatory modes (e.g., airway pressure release ventilation).
