Effect of lung recruitment on blood gas index, hemodynamics, lung compliance, and rehabilitation index in children with acute respiratory distress syndrome.

Background: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common pediatric disease, with an increasing mortality rate in recent years. This study aims to explore the effects of lung recruitment on blood gas indexes, hemodynamics, lung compliance, and rehabilitation index in children with ARDS.

Methods: Seventy children with ARDS admitted to our hospital from December 2017 to December 2018 were selected as the study subjects, and were divided into a study group (35 cases, treated with lung recruitment strategy) and a control group (35 cases, treated with routine therapy).
