POZOS CORTES, Karen Pamela et al. Severe acute respiratory distress syndrome in pregnancy. Review of the literature and two cases report. Med. crít. (Col. Mex. Med. Crít.) [online]. 2019, vol.33, n.4, pp.209-214.  Epub 30-Jul-2021. ISSN 2448-8909.

The woman during pregnancy, delivery and puerperium presents anatomical changes, physiological and ventilatory dynamics, so one of the complications that may present is the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) representing a challenge for the clinician, and complications may appear in pregnancy as chorioamnionitis, abortion, amniotic fluid embolism. The approach and treatment of ARDS in the patient is paramount. Advances have been made in the ventilatory strategy, such as: decreased tidal volume, prone position during mechanical ventilation, which have improved the prognosis favorably in this population.

Palabras llave : Pregnancy; ARDS; mechanical ventilation; prone position.
