Predictive Role of Lung Injury Prediction Score in the Development of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome in Korea.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Early recognition and therapeutic intervention are important in patients at high risk of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The lung injury prediction score (LIPS) has been used to predict ARDS development; however, it was developed based on the previous definition of ARDS. We investigated the predictive role of LIPS in ARDS development according to its Berlin definition in the Korean population.

Materials and methods

This was a retrospective study that enrolled adult patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) at a single university-affiliated hospital in Korea from September 1, 2018, to August 31, 2019. LIPS at the time of ICU admission and the development of ARDS were evaluated.

Results

Of the 548 enrolled patients, 33 (6.0%) fulfilled the B
