Patho of ARDS correct answer: - sudden, progressive type of respiratory failure - significant inflammatory response - increased capillary permeability - alveolar capillary membrane becomes damaged and more permeable to intravascular fluid (alveoli fill with fluid) Early S&S of ARDS correct answer: - dyspnea, tachypnea, cough, restlessness - auscultation of chest may reveal fine, scattered crackles or may be normal - ABGs - mild hypoxia and respiratory alkalosis caused by hyperventilati...
