TL;DR: One third of patients presented with mild ALI, but more than half rapidly evolved to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), confirming the grading of severity between the two forms of the syndrome.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impact of respiratory variables on mortality in non-ARDS and ARDS patients requiring mechanical ventilation.
