The systemic inflammatory response syndrome
Abstract
The systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) describes the clinical presentation of patients with systemic activation of the inflammatory response from any underlying cause. SIRS is a common problem in acute medical and surgical practice and an important cause of morbidity and mortality. As a consequence of SIRS, patients may develop multiple organ dysfunction syndrome and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Over the recent years our understanding of the inflammatory response in SIRS has increased, but as yet specific immunomodulatory therapies have not proved useful. The mainstay of treatment for patients with SIRS and ARDS remains a general supportive care. It is in this area that more encouraging advances are being made, particularly in the management of invasive ventilation and nutrition. In this review we summarize the definitions, epidemiology and pathophysiology of SIRS, ARDS and related conditions. We then give a description of the clinical consequences and treatment of SIRS and ARDS with an emphasis on current aspects of supportive care.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
