Emphysema is one of several diseases usually labeled collectively as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It’s the most common cause of death from respiratory disease in the United States; approximately 2 million Americans are afflicted with the disease. Emphysema(COPD) appears to be more prevalent in men than women. Postmortem findings reveal few adult lungs without some degree of emphysema. Causes Emphysema(COPD) may be caused by a genetic deficiency of alpha 1 -antitrypsin (AAN)

include: DKA‚ lactic acidosis‚ renal failure‚ toxic ingestion [pic] Predominantly respiratory alterations in acid-base balance are managed by controlling ventilation. Metabolic changes are managed by treating the underlying problem‚ e.g.: hypoxia‚ shock‚ infection‚ diabetic ketoacidosis‚ inborn error of metabolism‚ etc. The use of alkali‚ e.g. bicarbonate‚ is controversial: there is evidence that it can be detrimental. However‚ in severe acidosis‚

Vanessa Arroyo Med Surg2 Clinical Sepsis Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response to infection; it is the leading cause of death in intensive care units (Shimaoka‚ Park‚ 2008). The body may develop the inflammatory response to microbes in the blood‚ urine‚ lungs‚ skin and other tissues. Sepsis is usually treated in the ICU with antibiotic therapy and Intravenous fluids. These patients require preventative measures for deep vein thrombosis‚ stress ulcer and pressure ulcers. The first

For the short term hypoxemia can cause some adverse side effects that without treatment can become hypoxia which will cause other adverse issues to the body and will need medical attention. The conditions that cause hypoxemia can vary with age and infection‚

times‚ however‚ masks with high flow may be needed. The patient was unable to maintain adequate oxygen levels on nasal cannula‚ so to prevent hypoxia‚ administering oxygen via mask was necessary. Regardless of method of administration‚ oxygen flow rates should be titrated to achieve the desired oxygen level. To prevent adverse effects from chronic hypoxia‚ the patient will need to be closely monitored‚ adjusting her oxygen amount and equipment as

(tachypnea) and decreases tidal volume as a result of CNS stimulation and activation of pulmonary stretch receptors. The net effect is minimal change in minute ventilation and resting arterial CO2 levels. Hypoxic drive‚ the ventilatory response to arterial hypoxia that is mediated by peripheral chemoreceptors in the carotid bodies is depressed by even small amounts of N20. (Cerebral) by increasing CBF and cerebral blood blood volume‚ N20 produces a mild elevation of ICP. N20 also increases CMRO2. (Neuromuscular)
