 ==Causes==
-ARDS can be caused by any major swelling (inflammation) or injury to the lung. Some common causes include:
+===Life Threatening Causes===
+Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated.
-* Breathing vomit into the lungs (aspiration)
+===Common Causes===
-* Inhaling chemicals
-* Pneumonia
-* Septic shock
-* Trauma
-ARDS leads to a buildup of fluid in the air sacs. This fluid prevents enough oxygen from passing into the bloodstream.

-The fluid buildup also makes the lungs heavy and stiff, and decreases the lungs' ability to expand. The level of oxygen in the blood can stay dangerously low, even if the person receives oxygen from a breathing machine (mechanical ventilator) through a breathing tube (endotracheal tube).
+===Causes in Alphabetical Order===
-ARDS often occurs along with the failure of other organ systems, such as the liver or the kidneys. Cigarette smoking and heavy alcohol use may be risk factors.
