Sepsis and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: Recent Update.
Tuberculosis and Respiratory Diseases 2016 April

Timely treatment of underlying sepsis and early identification of patients at risk of ARDS can help to decrease its development. In addition, further studies are needed regarding pathogenesis and novel therapies in order to show promising future treatments of sepsis-induced ARDS.
