Additional Info
- Reactive airways dysfunction syndrome (RADS) is described as the development of respiratory symptoms in the minutes or hours after a single accidental inhalation of a high concentration of irritant gas, aerosol, vapor, or smoke; these initial symptoms are followed by asthma-like symptoms and airway hyperresponsiveness that persist for a prolonged period. RADS can occur after exposure to a variety of chemicals generated as gas or aerosol, or exposure to high levels of particulates
