Overview
According to the Berlin Definition, ARDS may be classified by the severity of oxygenation deficit into three subtypes: mild, moderate, and severe.
Classification
ARDS may be classified according to the Berlin Definition into three mutually exclusive subtypes: mild, moderate, and severe. These levels of severity are based on the PF ratio, the degree of oxygenation relative to the fraction of oxygen participating in gas-exchange. These levels also serve as a means of risk-stratifying patients, as each level is associated with a different mortality risk based on pooled data from a large patient population with ARDS.[1]
