Pulmonary Edema
Fluid Accumulation in Interstitium, Alveoli of Lungs Cause: Right side of heart delivers more
blood to pulmonary circulation than left side can handle

Respiratory Failure Inability to Exchange Sufficient Amounts
of O2, CO2
Cause: (Acute) Life-threatening, occurs suddenly; (Chronic) Underlying disease – COPD, aspiration, neuromuscular disorders
Diagnostics: Chest radiography; Serum electrolytes; History; ABGs (PaO² <60mm Hg; PaCO² >50mm Hg)
Signs/Symptoms: Restlessness; Wheezing; Cyanosis; Accessory muscle use for breathing
