ACUTE RESPIRATORY DISTRESS
SYNDROME
• a clinical syndrome of severe dyspnea of rapid
onset, hypoxemia, and diffuse pulmonary
infiltrates leading to respiratory failure
ARDS
ARDS
• Exudative phase
– alveolar capillary endothelial cells and type I
pneumocytes (alveolar epithelial cells) are injured
loss of the alveolar barrier edema interstisial
& alveolar spaces
– Encompasses the first 7 days of illness after
exposure to a prcipitating ARDS risk factor, with
the patient experiencing the onser of respiratory
symptoms
• Proliferative phase
– Lasts from day 7 – day 21
– organization of alveolar exudates
– type II pneumocytes proliferate along
alveolar basement membranes
synthesize new pulmonary surfactant
and differentiate into type I
pneumocytes
• Fibrotic phase
– extensive alveolar-duct and interstitial
fibrosis
ARDS
• Clinical presentation
– occurring most often within 12 to 72 hours of the
predisposing event
– Anxious, agitated and dyspneic
– Inflammatory changes in the lung lung
compliance ↓
– Hypoxemia that is resistant to oxygen therapy
ARDS
• Chest Radiograph
– Diffuse, bilateral alveolar infiltrate
• ABG analysis
Prognosis
• The development of
progressive pulmonary
hypertension is
associated with a poor
prognosis.
• The acute phase of
ARDS usually resolves
completely.
• Less commonly,
residual pulmonary
fibrosis occurs, in
which the alveolar
spaces are filled with
mesenchymal cells and
new blood vessels

• How SARS spreads:
– by close person-to-person contact.
– most readily by respiratory droplets (droplet spread)
produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes
in short distance (generally up to 3 feet)
– through the air and deposited on the mucous
membranes of the mouth, nose, or eyes of persons
who are nearby.
– also can spread when a person touches a surface or
object contaminated with infectious droplets and then
touches his or her mouth, nose, or eye(s).
– It is possible that the SARS virus might spread more
broadly through the air (airborne spread) or by other
ways that are not now known.

Case Detection
• Severe respiratory illness in the context of a documented
exposure risk is the key to diagnosing SARS-CoV disease.
Providers should therefore consider SARS-CoV disease in
patients requiring hospitalization for:
• Radiographically confirmed pneumonia or acute respiratory
distress syndrome of unknown etiology, AND
• One of the following risk factors in the 10 days before illness
onset:
– Travel to mainland China, Hong Kong, or Taiwan, or close contact with
an ill person with a history of recent travel to one of these areas, OR
– Employment in an occupation associated with a risk for SARS-CoV
exposure (e.g., healthcare worker with direct patient contact; worker
in a laboratory that contains live SARS-CoV), OR
– Part of a cluster of cases of atypical pneumonia without an alternative
diagnosis
• Infection control practitioners and other healthcare personnel
should be alert for clusters of pneumonia among two or more
healthcare workers who work in the same facility.
http://www.cdc.gov/sars/about/fs-s
http://www.cdc.gov/sars/surveillance/abs
Infection Control and Clinical
Evaluation
• Healthcare facilities should re-emphasize the importance of
basic infection control measures for respiratory infections and
consider adopting a "respiratory hygiene/cough etiquette"
strategy.
• All patients admitted to the hospital with radiographically
confirmed pneumonia should be:
– Placed on droplet precautions
– Screened for risk factors for possible exposure to SARS-CoV
– Evaluated with a chest radiograph, pulse oximetry, complete blood
count, and etiologic workup as indicated.
• If there is a high index of suspicion for SARS-CoV disease (by
clinicians and health department), the patient should
immediately be placed on SARS isolation precautions, and all
contacts of the ill patient should be identified, evaluated, and
monitored. Prompt SARS-CoV laboratory diagnostics should
be arranged through the health department.http://www.cdc.gov/sars/about/fs-s
http://www.cdc.gov/sars/surveillance/abs
Lab Testing
• Antibody testing using an enzyme immunoassay (EIA)
• reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR)
tests;
– During the first week of illness: Nasophyaryngeal (NP) swab plus
oropharygeal (OP) swab and a serum or plasma specimen
– After the first week of illness: NP swab plus OP swab and a stool
specimen
• Perform laboratory testing judiciously and in consultation
with the local or state health department.
• Providers should report all positive test results
immediately to the local or state health department.
• Arrange for confirmatory testing at an appropriate test
site through the local or state healthhttp://www.cdc.gov/sars/about/fs-s
department.
http://www.cdc.gov/sars/surveillance/abs
SARS
• febrile severe lower respiratory illness that
is caused by infection with a novel
coronavirus, SARS-associated coronavirus
(SARS-CoV)
• The vast majority of patients with SARS-
CoV disease
1) have a clear history of exposure either to
a SARS patient(s) or to a setting in which
SARS-CoV transmission is occurring, and
2) develop pneumonia
• Laboratory tests are can be helpful but do
not reliably detect infection early in the
illness
https://www.cdc.gov/sars/clinical/guidance.html
• absence of person-to-person transmission of SARS-CoV
anywhere in the world, the diagnosis of SARS-CoV
disease should be considered only in patients who
require hospitalization for radiographically confirmed
pneumonia and who have an epidemiologic history that
raises the suspicion of SARS-CoV disease.
• The suspicion for SARS-CoV disease is raised if, within 10
days of symptom onset, the patient:
– Has a history of recent travel to mainland China, Hong
Kong, or Taiwan (see Figure 1, footnote 3) or close contact1
with ill persons with a history of recent travel to such
areas, or
– Is employed in an occupation at particular risk for SARS-
CoV exposure, including a healthcare worker with direct
patient contact or a worker in a laboratory that contains
live SARS-CoV, or
– Is part of a cluster of cases of atypical pneumonia without
an alternative diagnosis
https://www.cdc.gov/sars/clinical/guidance.html
https://www.cdc.gov/sars/clinical/fig1.ht
• Once person-to-person transmission of SARS-CoV has
been documented in the world, the diagnosis should still
be considered in patients who require hospitalization for
pneumonia and who have the epidemiologic history
described above.
• In addition, all patients with fever or lower respiratory
symptoms (e.g., cough, shortness of breath, difficulty
breathing) should be questioned about whether within
10 days of symptom onset they have had
– Close contact with someone suspected of having SARS-CoV
disease, OR
– A history of foreign travel (or close contact with an ill
person with a history of travel) to a location with
documented or suspected SARS-CoV, OR
– Exposure to a domestic location with documented or
suspected SARS-CoV (including a laboratory that contains
live SARS-CoV), or close contact with an ill person with such
an exposure history.

Approach to The Patient
Sumber: Fishman’s Pulmonary Diseases and Disorders 4th Ed Volume 2 – Section Lung Failure (Chap 143)
Approach to The Patient
• Signs and symptoms of acute RF reflects the underlying disease
process & associated hypoxemia or acidemia due to hypercapnia.
• Apparent localized pulmonary findings (pneumonia, pulmonary
edema, asthma, or COPD).
• Predominant findings may be systemic (hypotension due to sepsis).
• Principal manifestation may be remote from thorax (abdominal pain
in acute pancreatitis, or leg pain due to long bone fracture) each
associated with acute (adult) respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
• Frequently, neurological / CV SS predominate.
• Neurology : restlessness, anxiety, confusion, seizures, coma, asterixis (in
severe hypercapnia).
• CV : tachycardia, variety of arrhythmias.
• There may be few/no findings other than complaints of dyspnea (esp
patients with hypoxemia due to pulmonary embolism).

Principles of Management
• Triage decisions acuity of resp failure, degree of
hypoxemia hypercapnia and acidemia, presence of co-
morbid conditions (cardiac disease, renal insufficiency),
clinical direction that patient takes over the first few
minutes/hours of obervation
• Airway management is key! Intubation (in chronic resp.
insufficiency) depends on critical ABG values & patient’s
early acute course. If in first dew minutes/hours progressive
hypoxemia/hypercapnia is observed intubation +
mechanical ventilation.
• Correction of hypoxemia and hypercapnia PaO2 60 mmHg
or higher (in coronary/cerebrovascular patient). Use nasal
prongs / face mask / controlled-flow oxygen via Venturi
mask. While correcting hypoxemia, coexisting hypercapnia
and respiratory acidosis must also be addressed
• Search for underlying cause
Sumber: Fishman’s Pulmonary Diseases and Disorders 4th Ed Volume 2 – Section Lung Failure (Chap 143)
Monitoring Patients with Acute Respiratory
Failure
• Repeated assessment!
• Most RR, tidal volume, use of accessory muscles, presence of
paradoxical breathing movements indicate worsening resp. failure
that requires mechanical ventilation
• Rapid, shallow breathing and paradoxical thoracoabdominal
breathing movements in worsening asthma and COPD
• Placed on mechanical ventilation monitor carefully for
ventilator-associated complications
• Also with risk of complications indwelling arterial & venous
catheters, patient immobilization, use of broad range of
pharmacologic agents
• Particular monitoring techniques pulse oxymetri (in critical
care), hypotention due to intrinsic positive end-expiratory pressure
(PEEP) (in status asthmaticus requiring mechanical ventilation)
Sumber: Fishman’s Pulmonary Diseases and Disorders 4th Ed Volume 2 – Section Lung Failure (Chap 143)
Prognosis
• Morbidity and mortality in acute hypoxemic
respiratory failure depends on underlying
cause.
– Younger patients have better survival rates than
older patients.
– Patients with preexisting lung disease, higher FIO2,
or PEEP requirements, or lower PaO2, may not
necessarily have poorer chance of survival.
• Morbidity and mortality in acute hypercapnic
respiratory failure

Avian Flu
Avian Flu: Overview
Sumber: http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/2500029-overview,
Avian Flu: Serovars
• The serotypes of influenza A virus are identified based
on the hemagglutinin (H) and neuraminidase (N)
proteins; 16 H serotypes and 9 N serotypes have been
identified.
• For example, one currently circulating strain is
designated as H3N2.
• The strain previously considered the greatest threat
was H5N1, mostly because of the high associated
mortality rate (up to 60%) in infected humans. H5N1
infections have decreased substantially in recent years,
and the most recent avian influenza of note is H7N9,
first described in China in 2013.
Sumber: http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/2500029-overview
Avian Flu: Antigenic Drift
• The immune response to these antigens is
responsible for most host protection.
• The viral RNA polymerase lacks error-checking
mechanisms and, as such, the antigenic drift
from year to year is sufficient to ensure a
significant susceptible host population.
• However, the segmented genome also has the
potential to allow re-assortment of genome
segments from different strains of influenza in a
co-infected host.

Avian influenza
• infection with avian (bird) influenza
(flu) Type A viruses
• occur naturally among wild aquatic
birds worldwide and can infect
domestic poultry and other bird
and animal species
• do not normally infect humans.
However, sporadic human
infections with avian flu viruses
have occurred
https://www.cdc.gov/flu/avianflu/avian-in-humans.htm
Influenza A virus :
• divided into subtypes on the basis of two proteins on the surface of the
virus: hemagglutinin (HA) and neuraminidase (NA)
• All known subtypes of influenza A viruses can infect birds, except
subtypes H17N10 and H18N11, which have only been found in bats.
• Only two influenza A virus subtypes (i.e., H1N1, and H3N2) are
currently in general circulation among people.
• H7N7 and H3N8 virus infections can cause illness in horses, and H3N8
virus infection cause illness in horses and dogs
• Sporadic H5 virus infection of humans has occurred, such as with Asian
lineage HPAI H5N1 viruses currently circulating among poultry in Asia
and the Middle East
• The most frequently identified H7 viruses associated with human
infection are Asian lineage avian influenza A(H7N9) viruses, which were
first detected in China in 2013
• H7N2, H7N3, H7N7 virus infections have been reported. These viruses
have primarily caused mild to moderate illness in people, with
symptoms that include conjunctivitis and/or upper respiratory tract
symptoms.
• Rare, sporadic H9N2 virus infections in people have been reported to
generally cause mild upper respiratory tract illness; one infection has
https://www.cdc.gov/flu/avianflu/influenza-a-virus-subtypes.htm
Avian Influenza A Virus Infections in Humans
• Infected birds shed avian influenza virus in
their saliva, mucous and feces
• Human infections with bird flu viruses can
happen when enough virus gets into a
person’s eyes, nose or mouth, or is inhaled
• happen when virus is in the air (in droplets or
possibly dust) and a person breathes it in, or
when a person touches something that has
virus on it then touches their mouth, eyes or
nose
• occurred most often after unprotected
contact with infected birds or surfaces
contaminated with avian influenza viruses
https://www.cdc.gov/flu/avianflu/avian-in-humans.htm
https://www.cdc.gov/flu/avianflu/avian-in-humans.htm
S/S
• Mild – severe
• Conjunctivitis
• Influenza like illness (fever, cough, sore throat,
muscle aches)
• Accompanied by nausea, abdominal pain, diarrhea,
vomiting
• Severe respi illness (shortness of breath, difficulty
breathing, pneumonia, ARD, viral pneumonia, respi
failure)
• Neurologic changes (altered mental status, seizures)
• Involve other organ systems
• Asian lineage H7N9 & HPAI asian lineage H5N1
most serious illness & highest mortality in humans
https://www.cdc.gov/flu/avianflu/avian-in-humans.htm
Diagnosis
• collecting a swab from the upper respiratory
tract (nose or throat) of the sick person (more
accurate when the swab is collected during
the first few days of illness) lab : molecular
test, by trying to grow the virus, or both
• possible to diagnose avian influenza A virus
infection by looking for evidence of
antibodies the body has produced in
response to the virus (requires two blood
specimens (one taken during the first week of
illness and another taken 3-4 weeks later)
take several weeks to verify the results, and
testing must be performed in a special
laboratory, such as at CDC
https://www.cdc.gov/flu/avianflu/avian-in-humans.htm
Treatment
• neuraminidase inhibitor
• most viruses are susceptible to
oseltamivir, peramivir, and
zanamivir, some evidence of
antiviral resistance has been
reported in Asian H5N1 and Asian
H7N9 viruses isolated from some
human cases
https://www.cdc.gov/flu/avianflu/avian-in-humans.htm
Prevention
• avoid sources of exposure
• had contact with infected birds may
be given influenza antiviral drugs
preventatively
• Seasonal influenza vaccination will
not prevent infection with avian
influenza A viruses, but can reduce
the risk of co-infection with human
and avian influenza A viruses

http://www.hpa.org.uk/webw/HPAweb&HPAwebStandard/HPAweb_C/1195733851442?p=1160495617107
The clinician attending a confirmed human case of avian influenza should notify the local Health Protecti on Unit (HPU) as soon
as possible. The local HPU will advise, in liasion with HPA Centre for Infections (CfI), on the assessment of contacts, clinical
management and use of oseltamivir prophylaxis.
No
3 Casual contact of an asymptomatic case Yes No action required however information leaflets may
be helpful.
If a contact becomes unwell, the local HPU should liaise with the Pandemic Influenza Office in the first instance. If
unavailable, contact appropriate consultant in the Respiratory & Systemic Infections Department or the Virus
Reference Laboratory at CfI to discuss next steps.
Footnotes:
1 A close contact is defined as an individual sharing a household or remaining unprotected whilst within speaking distance (<1 metre) while caring for a patient
with confirmed or strongly suspected H5N1 infection. (adapted from WHO Rapid Advice Guidelines on pharmacological management of humans infected with
avian influenza A(H5N1) virus, May 2006 www.who.int/csr/disease/avian_influenza/guidelines/pharmamanagement/en/index.html)
2 Health care worker or anyone else engaged in direct clinical care or examination of symptomatic patient. Ideally, the number of people involved should be
kept to a minimum.
3 Port Health algorithm for information on travel exposures. (to follow)
5 Refer to information leaflets on active follow up. (link to information leaflets to follow)
6 Passive follow up: provision of information to individual (or responsible carer) and request that any febrile respiratory or other unexplained illness within 7
days of last contact be reported (24 hour reporting).

Acute Severe Asthma
Status Asthmaticus
Status asthmaticus
• extreme form of an asthma exacerbation that can
result in hypoxemia, hypercarbia, and secondary
respiratory failure
• acute exacerbation of asthma that remains
unresponsive to initial treatment with
bronchodilators
• vary from a mild form to a severe form with
bronchospasm, airway inflammation, and mucus
plugging that can cause difficulty breathing, carbon
dioxide retention, hypoxemia, and respiratory
failure
RF
• Viral infections
• Air pollutants - Such as dust, cigarette
smoke, and industrial pollutants
• Medications - Including beta-blockers,
aspirin, and nonsteroidal anti-
inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
• Cold temperature
• Exercise
Clinical review: Severe asthma,
Clinical review: Severe asthma,
Primary survey
• As for all patients, the initial evaluation should center
around the “ABCs.” History taking and a more detailed
examination can occur after you assure adequate airway,
breathing, and circulation. This need only takes a few
seconds to minutes, but is essential.
– Airway: Can the patient maintain
his/her airway? Is the mental status
adequate to protect the airway?
– Breathing: What is the degree of air
exchange? Is the patient cyanotic?
– Circulation: How is the perfusion? The
pulses?
History
• Previous history of wheezing?
• If known asthmatic, what are maintenance
meds? Compliance? Time of last
• aerosol?
• Previous office/clinic/ED visits?
• Previous hospitalizations, intubations, last
steroid course?
• When did this exacerbation begin?
• Precipitating factors?
• General medical history, including any
medications.
Vital signs
• Temperature: fever may indicate URI, pneumonia,
other source of infection
• Pulse: Usually tachycardic, even before treatment
• Respiratory rate: Usually tachypneic.
• Blood pressure: Pulsus paradoxus over 10-15
correlates well with moderate to severe disease, as
it indicates the effect that air trapping is having on
the cardiac output. It is best measured with a
sphygmomanometer and a stethoscope, and is the
difference in systolic BP between the pressure at
which an observer first hears faint pulse sounds and
the pressure at which all sounds are heard.
Breath sounds / chest exam
• There must be air movement in order to appreciate wheezing, lack or wheezing does NOT
necessarily mean everything is fine!
• I:E ratio is usually 5:2, may be up to 1:4 with a severe attack
• Symmetry of breath sounds
– Some asymmetry may be heard with asthma alone due to mucous plugging and atelectasis.
– Increased wheezing unilaterally may indicate presence of a foreign body
– Significantly decreased breath sounds unilaterally may indicate pneumonia
– or pneumothorax.
• The use of accessory respiratory muscles(abdominal paradoxic breathing,
• sternocleidomastoid use, nasal flaring, intercostal retractions) correlates with the severity
of airway obstruction. Wheezing is a less sensitive indicator of the degree of obstruction
present.
• Feel for the presence of crepitus in the neck or chest wall, signifying air leak and significant
obstruction
Cardiac exam
• Attention should be paid to rate and blood
pressure, including the presence of pulsus
paradoxus. In addition, are the heart tones
normal, is there a murmur (any evidence of
pre-existing heart disease)
Mental status
• Confusion or obtundation suggest significant
hypercapnia or hypoxemia, and necessitate
immediate action!!!
• Clinical asthma score
Prognosis
• In general, unless a complicating
illness such as congestive heart failure
or chronic obstructive pulmonary
disease is present, status asthmaticus
has a good prognosis if appropriate
therapy is administered
• Delays can result from poor access to
health care on the part of the patient
or even delays in using corticosteroids
• with acute asthma should use
corticosteroids early and aggressively
Complications
• Cardiac arrest
• Respiratory failure or arrest
• Hypoxemia with hypoxic ischemic
central nervous system (CNS) injury
• Pneumothorax or
pneumomediastinum
• Toxicity from medications
Treatment*
• High concentration of oxygen (by face mask) achieve
oxygen saturation of >90%
• High doses of short-acting inhaled β2-agonists (nebulizer or
via a metered dose inhaler with a spacer)
• Not satisfactory response β2-agonists add : inhaled anti-
cholinergic
• Refractory to inhaled therapies slow infusion of
aminophylline
– MONITOR BLOOD LEVELS! Especially in oral theophylline
• IV or nebulizer Magnesium sulfate + inhaled β2-agonists :
• Severely ill patients w/ impending respiratory failure : IV β2-
effective,
agonists +well tolerated,intubation
prophylactic but not routinely recommended
• Patients with respiratory failure :
– Intubate + institute ventilation
– Conventional bronchodilator
– Not respond Anesthetic : halothane
– NO Sedatives : may depress ventilation
– Antibiotics : not routinely unless there are signs of pneumonia.
Harrison’s Principle of
Inhaled β2-agonists
• Safe, effective (obstruction)
• Salbutamol (albuterol: most frequently used
agent : its potency, duration of action (four to
six hours) and β2-selectivity.
– 2.5 mg of salbutamol (0.5 ml) in 2.5 ml NS for each
nebulisation
Harrison’s Principle of
Terminology
• Pleuritis (also referred to as pleurisy) = inflammation of the pleura.
Can occur w/ or w/o exudation
• Parapneumonic effusion = A pleural effusion associated with bacterial
pneumonia, bronchiectasis, or lung abscess
• Complicated parapneumonic effusion = parapneumonic effusions that
require tube thoracostomy for their resolution.
• Empyema (or pus in the pleural space) requires the presence of bacteria
on Gram’s staining of the pleural fluid.
Harrison’s Principle of
Exudative pleural effusions : >= 1 of the
criteria
1. Pleural fluid protein : serum protein >0.5
2. Pleural fluid LDH : serum LDH >0.6
3. Pleural fluid LDH > 2/3 normal upper limit for serum
Harrison’s Principle of
• Pleural fluid analyses
– pH <7.3 - parapneumonic effusions, malignancies,
rheumatoid effusions, tuberculosis, and systemic
acidosis.
– pH < 7.0 – empyema (or esophageal rupture).
– pH < 7.0 & glucose <50 mg/dL indications for
tube thoracostomy.
Harrison’s Principle of
Medicine, 18th ed
• History :
– Viral : prodrome symptoms (low-grade fever, sore throat,
etc) no? may be : pulmonary embolism
• Classic physical signs :
– Diminished breath sounds
– Dullness to percussion
– Decreased tactile fremitus
– Occasionally a localized pleural friction rub*
– Massive effusions : signs of mediastinal shift
Harrison’s Principle of
Management
Factors indicating the likely need for a procedure more invasive than a
thoracentesis (in increasing order of importance) include:
1. loculated pleural fluid
2. pleural fluid pH < 7.20
3. pleural fluid glucose < 3.3 mmol/L (<60 mg/dL)
4. positive Gram stain or culture of the pleural fluid
5. the presence of gross pus in the pleural space

Aspiration pneumonia
• results from inhalation of stomach
contents or secretions of the oropharynx,
leading to lower respiratory tract infection
• aspiration may cause:
– Chemical pneumonitis
– Obstruction
– Bacterial infection
• The usual site for an aspiration pneumonia
is the apical and posterior segments of the
lower lobe of the right lung
• If the patient is supine then the aspirated
material may also enter the posterior
segment of the upper lobe

• It is common. One study of elderly
patients implicated aspiration
pneumonia in 10% or cases of
community-acquired pneumonia
• Aspiration pneumonia is relatively
common in hospital and usually
involves infection with multiple
bacteria, including anaerobes.
• It is more common in men, young
children and the elderly

Pathogens
• Pathogens of community-acquired aspiration pneumonia are
often the normal flora of the oropharynx, including:
– Streptococcus pneumoniae
– Staphylococcus aureus
– Haemophilus influenzae
– Anaerobes - eg, Peptostreptococcus, Fusobacterium and Prevotella
spp. 'Streptococcus milleri' group
– Klebsiella pneumoniae - increasingly seen in those with a history of
alcohol misuse.
• Pathogens of nosocomial aspiration pneumonia include[2]:
– Oral anaerobes - as above
– Gram-positive cocci - eg, Peptostreptococcus spp., Peptococcus spp
– Gram-negative bacilli - eg, enterobacteria (Klebsiella pneumoniae,
Escherichia coli, Enterobacter spp.), Pseudomonas aeruginosa
– Meticillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA).

• Impaired consciousness: drug or alcohol misuse,
general anaesthesia, seizures, sedation, acute
stroke, central nervous system lesions, head injury
• Poor mobility, nil by mouth status, increasing age,
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD),
male gender and increasing number of medications
• Swallowing disorders: oesophageal stricture,
dysphagia, stroke, bulbar palsy, pharyngeal disease
(eg, malignancy), neuromuscular disorders (eg,
multiple sclerosis).
• Other: tracheo-oesophageal fistula, ventilator-
associated pneumonia, periodontal disease, gastro-
oesophageal reflux, post-gastrectomy,
tracheostomy.

S/S
• Nonspecific symptoms - eg, fever, headache,
nausea, vomiting, anorexia, myalgia, weight
loss.
• Cough.
• Dyspnoea.
• Pleuritic chest pain.
• Purulent sputum.
• Signs may include tachycardia, tachypnoea,
decreased breath sounds and dullness to
percussion over areas of consolidation,
pleural friction rub.
• Severe infection may lead to hypoxia and
septic shock

• Other causes of respiratory
distress, including:
– Other causes of pneumonia
– Bronchiolitis.
– Croup.
– Epiglottitis.
– Foreign body in respiratory tract
– Asthma.
– Cardiovascular disease.

Investigations
• Blood count: neutrophil leukocytosis.
• Electrolytes and renal function: dehydration, electrolyte
• imbalance.
• Blood culture.
• Blood gases.
• Culture of sputum: n patients with bacterial aspiration
pneumonia, this may show organisms normally resident in the
pharynx.
• CXR:
– Right, middle and lower lung lobes are the most common sites.
– Aspiration when upright may cause bilateral lower lung infiltrates.
– Right upper lobe often shows consolidation in those with a history of
alcohol misuse who aspirate in the prone position.
• Lung CT is only very occasionally required.
• Specimens obtained from bronchoscopy may help to guide
choice of antibiotic treatment
http://pedsccm.org/FILE-CABINET/Practical/Akron_pdfs/7ASTHMAP.PDF
Management
• Mechanical obstruction: removal of the object, normally by
bronchoscopy.
• Tracheal suction if seen early.
• Intubation with positive pressure ventilation may be required.
• Bacterial infection of lower airways (the choice of antibiotics
will be influenced by any recent previous antibiotic treatment,
microbiology culture results and the patient's condition):
– Initial empirical antibiotic therapy while awaiting culture results.
– Antimicrobial therapy should be based on the patient's characteristics,
the setting in which aspiration occurred, the severity of pneumonia,
and available information regarding local pathogens and resistance
patterns
– Community-acquired aspiration pneumonia is often initially treated
with co-amoxiclav. Metronidazole may need to be added if there is
evidence of complications - eg, lung abscess
– Hospital-acquired aspiration pneumonia: a suitable combination in
patients who have already recently been treated with antibiotics is
piperacillin with tazobactam.

• The role of steroids is uncertain and
not of proven benefit.
• Supportive therapy with fluid
management, bronchodilators and
physiotherapy may help.
• Referral to speech and language
therapists.
http://pedsccm.org/FILE-CABINET/Practical/Akron_pdfs/7ASTHMAP.PDF
Complication
• Lung abscess / bronchiectasis
• ARD
Prognosis
• This depends on the underlying cause, general well-
being of the patient, presence of complications,
speed of diagnosis and effective treatment.
Prevention
• Keep the head of the bed at a 30° angle: this
reduces the risk or aspiration pneumonia in those at
risk
• Nasogastric feeding for at-risk patients - eg, poor
gag reflex, dysphagia.

Edema paru
Edema paru
• Definisi ekstravasasi cairan • Etiologi dan patofisiologi
yang berasal dari vaskular paru 1. Edema paru kardiak akibat gagal
masuk ke dlm interstitium dan jantung kiri shg tekanan end-
alveoli paru diastolic ventrikel meningkat. Sbg
akibatnya, tek. Hidrostatik vena
pulmonalis dan kapiler paru juga
akan meningkat dan terjadi
ekstravasasi cairan ke jaringan
2. Edema paru non-kardiak bukan
akibat peningkatan tek.vena
pulmonalis. Penyebabnya ialah
peningkatan permeabilitas kapiler,
penurunan tek.onkotik plasma,
peningkatan tek limfatik maupun
penyebab neurogenik. Contohnya:
tenggelam, aspirasi benda asing,
cedera inhalasi, overload cairan,
ARDS, SAH, hipoalbuminemia dsb.
Edema paru
• Diagnosis • 2. pemeriksaan fisis
1. Anamnesis – Ronki basah halus sbg
- Sesak napas yg akibat dr cairan yg
bertambah hebat dlm terakumulasi di dlm
waktu singkat (jam/hari), alveolus
disertai ortopnea
– Wheezing, bila terjadi
- Kadang dpt ditemui
gejala batuk dg sputum edema pd saluran napas
