Introduction The lungs are the essential organs of respiration; they are two in number and are placed one on either side within the thorax‚ separated from each other by the heart. The substance of the lung is light‚ spongy and porous. The surface is smooth‚ shining and marked into numerous areas‚ indicating the lobules of the organs

disease (COPD) is a chronic lung disease that encompasses a group of lung conditions that causes structural changes of the airways and alveoli‚ the dysfunction of cilia and an inflammatory response. It is a progressive disease that symptoms worsen over time and is characterized by an accelerated decline in lung function. Chronic bronchitis and emphysema are the most common forms of COPD and long- term smoking is the biggest contributing factor in the development and progression of the disease. COPD has

x-ray‚ hypoxemia refractory to oxygensupplementation‚ and reduced lung compliance. These signs occur in the absence of left side failure. Patients with ARDS usually require mechanical ventilation with a higher than normal airway pressure. * PATHOPHYSIOLOGY ARDS Occurs as a result of inflammatory trigger that initiates the release of cellular and chemical mediators‚ causing injury to the alveolar capillary membrane. These result in leakage of fluid into the alveolar interstitial spaces and alterations

Pathophysiology Discussion Paper: COPD Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Clinical Definition This lung disease is clinically defined as a chronic obstacle of lung airflow that interferes with normal breathing and is not fully reversible (WHO‚ 2014). This chronic lung disease is commonly associated with constant inflammatory response within the lung airways minimizing gas exchange (Romme‚ McAllister‚ Murchison‚ Beek‚ Petrides‚ Price‚ MacNee‚ 2013). Many individuals with COPD disease commonly
