This book provides a concise yet comprehensive overview of pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS). The text reviews the emerging science behind the new PARDS definition; explores epidemiology, pathobiology, etiologies, and risk factors; reviews state-of-the-art treatment modalities and strategies; and discusses clinical outcomes.


Written by experts in the field, Pediatric Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: A Clinical Guide is a valuable resource for clinicians and practitioners who specialize in pediatric critical care.

• respiratory support
• pulmonary treatment
• sedation
• analgesia
• transfusion
• extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

“This is a thorough and informative reference for health care providers who regularly or occasionally care for patients with PARDS; it is targeted to pediatric critical care providers, with pertinent sections for anesthesiologists as highlighted previously.” (Garrett Keim and Justin L. Lockman, Anesthesia & Analgesia, Vol. 131 (2), August, 2020)
