Reproducible clinical archetypes in acute respiratory failure: a multi-cohort trajectory analysis.

Intensive care medicine·July 1, 2026·PMID 42149243

Why it matters

Static severity scores at ICU admission fail to capture the dynamic course of respiratory failure, limiting prognostication and trial enrichment. These validated trajectory archetypes offer early, evolving risk stratification that could refine enrollment in clinical trials, guide resource allocation, and target biological phenotyping to the patients most likely to benefit.
