ABSTRACT
We would like to extend our gratitude to Dr. da Hora Passos et al. for their interest in our recently published review and meta-analysis in Critical Care. In this response, we will elaborate on the points raised by the authors. We agree with the authors that LUS, like any other diagnostic technique, is valuable and safe only when utilized by trained operators. The authors expressed uncertainty regarding the sensitivity of LUS in detecting mild ARDS or ARDS at an early stage. This variance in sensitivity is more likely due to diversity in diagnostic thresholds. We advocate for global collaboration among LUS experts to align LUS methodologies and strengthen the evidence supporting LUS in the diagnosis of ARDS and its morphological subphenotypes.
