Longitudinal evolution of the RALE score in patients with ARDS over the study period. When separated into groups based on need for prolonged mechanical ventilation (still intubated day 7 post-intubation), gradual decline in the RALE score was only observed in patients with early liberation from mechanical ventilation (p < 0.0001).
