The optimal fluid management for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) remains unknown. Liberal fluid management may improve cardiac function and end-organ perfusion, but may lead to increased pulmonary edema and inhibit gas exchange. Trials suggest that conservative fluid management leads to better clinical outcomes, although prospective randomized, controlled trials have not demonstrated mortality benefit. Recent discoveries suggest there is large heterogeneity in ARDS, and varying phenotypes of ARDS respond differently to fluid treatments. Future advances in management will require real-time assignment of ARDS phenotypes, which may facilitate inclusion into clinical trials by ARDS phenotype and guide development of targeted therapies.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D011446	Prospective Studies	Observation of a population for a sufficient number of persons over a sufficient number of years to generate incidence or mortality rates subsequent to the selection of the study group.	Prospective Study,Studies, Prospective,Study, Prospective
D011654	Pulmonary Edema	Excessive accumulation of extravascular fluid in the lung, an indication of a serious underlying disease or disorder. Pulmonary edema prevents efficient PULMONARY GAS EXCHANGE in the PULMONARY ALVEOLI, and can be life-threatening.

D012128	Respiratory Distress Syndrome	A syndrome characterized by progressive life-threatening RESPIRATORY INSUFFICIENCY in the absence of known LUNG DISEASES, usually following a systemic insult such as surgery or major TRAUMA.
