Detection of Fibroproliferation by Chest High-Resolution CT Scan in Resolving ARDS

In patients with ARDS, diminished lung compliance measured bedside was associated with radiologic fibroproliferation 14 days post diagnosis. Establishing factors that predispose to development of excessive fibroproliferation with subsequent confirmation by chest HRCT scan represents a promising strategy to identify patients with ARDS at risk for poorer clinical outcomes.
