Abstract:
The keys to differential diagnoses and anatomical localization for causes of acute respiratory distress are based on history and physical examination findings. The specific factors and therapeutic considerations for conditions associated with acute respiratory distress ranging from laryngeal paralysis to diaphragmatic hernia are examined. Additionally, the general approaches and principles to consider regarding oxygen therapy and ventilatory support are discussed.
