Objective:
To discuss the estimation and treatment of adult acute epiglottitis dyspnea.
Method:
126 adult with acute epiglottitis patients were analyzed.
Result:
None of 30 patients undergone epiglotiotomy had asphyxia, inflammation diffuse or serious hemorrhage. 8 patients undergone tracheotomy, one patient undergone thyroericotomy but died. One of 87 patients with conservative treatment died.
Conclusion:
Gaspping, salivating and dyslogia are symbols of severe larynx obstruction. Fibrous laryngoscope is the best way of examine. Keeping respiratory path open and eliminating epiglottis swelling is the key of treatment.

Pneumonia IV: Management
Bacterial Pneumonia Treatment
For bacterial pneumonia, antibiotics serve as the cornerstone of therapy. Initial treatment often begins with empirical antibiotics, tailored to the anticipated causative organism and adjusted based on culture results. Key antibiotic choices include:
Acute Respiratory Failure-III
Acute Respiratory Failure-V
