Treatment & Types of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome in Delhi

Treatment centers on supportive care in an intensive care unit, most critically mechanical ventilation using carefully calibrated low-pressure, protective ventilation strategies designed to support oxygenation while minimizing further lung injury. Positioning patients on their stomach, known as prone positioning, has been shown to significantly improve oxygenation in moderate to severe cases. Treating the underlying trigger, such as administering antibiotics for infection or source control for sepsis, alongside careful fluid management, is essential alongside respiratory support, and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation may be used in the most severe cases when ventilation alone is insufficient.
