Introduction: Every muscle has lactic acid.According to many people Lactic acid is nasty stuff produced in our muscles during exercise‚ cause soreness‚ muscle fatigue‚ does not contribute to exercise performance‚ muscle does not use it for fuel‚ and better athletes makes less of it. But they all are wrong or in other words they are a lay. Instead Lactate acid is made of Lactate ion called (Lactate) and Hydrogen Ion.

Chapter 11 ARDS INTRODUCTION Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) - lung inflammation seen at the level of the alveolar capillary membrane with increased vascular permeability. ARDS results in: bilateral pulmonary edema and atelectasis despite no evidence of left heart failure (e.g.‚ normal pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP). ARDS is present when the ALI results in such severe hypoxia that at the PaO2/FIO2 ratio is 200 mm Hg or less. Approximately 10% to 15% of intensive care
