The most critical initial question in Pediatrics is whether or not the patient is actually ill. Observation of the patient prior to the actual exam can be tremendously helpful in making this determination.. By: Yazmin Realivasquez. Stephen Huang . Jose Torres. What is ARDS?. ARDS is a respiratory condition characterized by hypoxemia, and stiff lungs, without mechanical ventilation most patients would die. ARDS represents a response to many different insults/injuries and evolves through different phases: alveolar capillary damage to lung resolution to a fibro-proliferative phase. The pulmonary epithelial and endothelial cellular damage is characterized by inflammation, apoptosis, necrosis and increased alveolar-capillary permeability, which lead to the development of alveolar edema. . Pathology. Pathology. COPD. Asthma. Allergic disorder characterized by episodes of wheezing. Bronchiectasis. Emphysema. The progressive loss of lung function due to a decrease in the total number of alveoli, the enlargement of the remaining . Transports air into the lungs and facilitates the diffusion of oxygen into the blood stream. Receives carbon dioxide from the blood and exhales it. Organs of the Respiratory system. Slide 13.1.
