Brief summary
Neonatal acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS) is a rare but often severe respiratory disorder. The incidence remains unclear and mortality is about 30%-60%. It is characterized by acute, refractory hypoxemia, persistent respiratory distress and decreased lung compliance. Evaluation and comparison of various clinical studies conducted were hindered by a lack of uniformity in diagnostic criteria.
Detailed description
In 2017, the neonatal acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS) Consortium Working Group has proposed diagnostic criteria for neonatal ARDS. The study consists of a prospective, multicentre, web-based,cohort study in China in which neonates who fulfil the new criteria definition are enrolled in order to: describe the epidemiology, clinical course, and prognosis of neonates affected by neonatal ARDS; identify a list of risk factors for neonatal ARDS, as it exists for adults and older children with ARDS; and guide future studies.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Acute onset (ie, within one week) from a known or suspected clinical insult *
Exclusion criteria
RDS, TTN, or congenital anomalies as a primary current acute respiratory condition * Diffuse, bilateral, and irregular opacities or infiltrates, or complete opacification of the lungs, which are not fully explained by local effusions, atelectasis, RDS, TTN, or congenital anomalies * Absence of congenital heart disease explaining the oedema (this includes ductus arteriosus with pulmonary overflow if no acute pulmonary haemorrhage exists). Echocardiography is needed to verify the origin of oedema. * Mild ARDS: 4≤OI\<8;Moderate ARDS: 8≤OI\<16;Severe ARDS: OI≥16
