Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS)
Sudden failure of the circulatory system in the limbs or a limb often resulting in gangrene and subsequent organ failure.
'Acute' means sudden onset or short course, as opposed to 'chronic' which means long duration or frequent recurrence.
The difference between acute renal (kidney) failure and chronic kidney failure, is that acute is a sudden onset. Something like a medical condition, trama, or surgery can cause the failure within days or even hrs. Chrinic kidney failure is slow damage to the kidney over a few years, resulting in the kidneys not being able to filter blood properly.
Acute refers to a sudden onset or short duration of a disease or condition, typically characterized by intense symptoms. It is the opposite of chronic, which refers to long-lasting or recurring conditions.
