Popis:	The review of adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in children by Lyrene and Truog1 summarizes their experience in 15 children ranging in age from 15 months to 14 years. We wish to emphasize that this syndrome may occur in very young infants. We have cared for a previously well 6-week-old infant who had the clinical presentation, course, and ventilatory data compatible with ARDS. The infant was found dusky and gasping in her crib and was noted at a local hospital to be tachypneic and in marked respiratory distress (Pao2 was 29 mm Hg on room air).
