While the acronyms are similar, reactive airway disease (RAD) and reactive airways dysfunction syndrome (RADS) are not the same.

Without exotic treatment such as bone marrow transplant, death with this dose is common, [3] due generally more to infection than gastrointestinal dysfunction. Neurovascular. This syndrome typically occurs at absorbed doses greater than 30 grays (3,000 rad), though it may occur at doses as low as 10 grays (1,000 rad). [3]
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a type of respiratory failure characterized by rapid onset of widespread inflammation in the lungs. [1] Symptoms include shortness of breath (dyspnea), rapid breathing (tachypnea), and bluish skin coloration (cyanosis). [1] For those who survive, a decreased quality of life is common. [4]

If a clinician is concerned that reactive airway disease or asthma may be a component of the illness, a bronchodilator may be administered. [9] Anticholinergic inhalers, such as ipratropium bromide, have a modest short-term effect at best and are not recommended for treatment. [20] [49] [50]
