Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) continues to pose significant challenges in critical care, with high morbidity and mortality despite ongoing therapeutic advances. This session offers a focused exploration of biomarkers and their evolving role in ARDS pathophysiology and management. Attendees will gain a clear understanding of the review’s key findings, including how biomarkers illuminate disease mechanisms and inform clinical decision-making. The session will also evaluate current applications of biomarkers in practice, featuring insights from clinical trials and point-of-care technologies. Join us to discover how biomarker-driven strategies are shaping the future of ARDS care and advancing precision medicine in the ICU.

Learning Objectives:

  • Summarize the key findings on acute respiratory distress syndrome biomarkers and their impact on disease mechanisms
  • Evaluate current clinical applications of biomarkers, including insights from trials using point-of-care technologies
