1 ARDS, or acute respiratory distress syndrome, is a lung condition that leads to low oxygen levels in the blood. 2  ARDS can be life threatening. 3  This is because your body's organs, such as the kidneys and brain, need oxygen-rich blood to work properly.
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) occurs when fluid builds up in the tiny, elastic air sacs (alveoli) in your lungs. More fluid in your lungs means less oxygen can reach your bloodstream. This deprives your organs of the oxygen they need to function.
