Pneumonia is an acute inflammation of the lung parenchyma caused by a microorganism. Pneumonia can affect one or both lungs. The infection may be caused by fungi, bacteria, Parasites, viruses and chemicals. Pneumonia produces inflammation in the lung's air sacs, also referred to as alveoli. The alveoli fill with fluid or pus, making it difficult to breathe. Pneumonia often is a complication of another condition, such as the flu. Symptoms of pneumonia can range from mild to life threatening…

context of a comprehensive infection control program that follows CDC recommendations and applicable Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (OSHA) requirements, including the Blood borne Pathogens (29 CFR 1910.1030), PPE (29 CFR 1910.132), and Respiratory Protection (20 CFR 1910.134) standards (CDC 2015,…

or fluid in the small air sacs, audible on inspiration or expiration resembling the sound made by rubbing strands of hair together by the ear. Crackles if widespread may be related to a serious problem may be indicative of pulmonary edema or acute respiratory distress. Wheezes are continuous sounds caused by movement of air through narrow airways due to constriction of muscles such as in asthma, swelling in bronchitis, an obstruction, or spasm. Wheezing leading to hypoxia and cyanosis require…

with pulmonary and thoracic diseases which deals with increasing the work of breathing, this is caused by having help from the accessory muscle. “The common causes of pulmonary and thoracic diseases is narrowed airways (COPD, asthma), “stiff lungs” (severe pneumonia, pulmonary edema), or a stiff chest wall (ascites, anasarca, pleural effusion).” (Egan 343-344) Increased work of breathing can also be used with retractions which is collapsed inward of the skin…

Mechanical Ventilation and the Effects on the Cardiopulmonary and Renal Systems Amanda K. Godshall West Chester University Abstract The important objective of this paper is to explore mechanical ventilation and the many effects it has on a patient’s organ systems. The cardiovascular system can be affected along with the pulmonary and renal systems. Cardiovascular side effects depend upon the previous underlying cardiopulmonary status of each patient.
