ACUTE RESPIRATORY
FAILURE
Definition
Hypoxemic respiratory failure (type I) is present when
the arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) is <8
kPa (60 mmHg) when the patient is breathing room
air.
Hypercapnic respiratory failure (type II) is present
when the arterial partial pressure of CO2 (PaCO2) is
> 6.7 kPa (50 mmg).
Disorders that initially causes hypoxemia may be
complicated by respiratory pump failure and
hypercapnia.

Nursing care
Very important.
Patient in prop up position.
: Reduce the effect of splinting abdomen
: Increased respiratory effort and reduced work
of breathing
: Reduced atelectasis (lung unit collapes)
especially at the lower zone.
: Easy to cough.
It help to reduce the complications such as Bed
sore, DVT and Nosocomial infection.
Oxygen Therapy
O2 is widely used across all medical
specialities
It is life saving & part of first line treatment in
many acute critical situations
It should always be considered along with mx
of the airway, breathing, circulation, constant
monitoring and reassesment of treatment.
Method of O2 delivery is part of this mx.
Prescribing oxygen:
controlled or uncontrolled?
As with any drug, O2 should be prescribed.
Most pts benefit from uncontrolled O2
However a small group COAD patients requires
controlled O2 therapy (used Ventimask).
They depend on hypoxia drive to stimulate respiration
These pts should received carefully controlled O2 therapy,
starting at 24 - 28%, which is progressively increased.
Aiming to achieve a PaO2 > 50mmHg or SpO2 of 85 92%.

depression
- drug ingestion,
anaesthesia, head injury,
encephalopathy, fatigue etc
Disruption of respiratory
signal during transmission
along the nerves to the
respiratory muscles
- spinal injury, motor neurone
disease, Guillain-Barre
syndrome

3.
Physiological shunting
- pneumonia, pulmonary oedema, pulmonary
haemorrhage and contusion, atelectasis
Anatomical shunting
-intracardiac shunting (eg. Fallots tetralogy,
Eisenmenger syndrome)
Increased physiologic dead space
- hypovolemia, pulmonary embolus, poor cardiac
function, or high intrathoracic pressures ( from
positive pressure ventilation)
Diffusion abnormality
The alveolar and
capillary distand
increased d/t interstitel
infiltrate or fluid in the
alveolar sac.
Thus the gasseos (O2
and CO2) difficult to
travel.
Common in Pneumonia

ARDS

Respiratory Monitoring
1. Clinical
a. Increased work of breathing :
tachypnea, use of accessory
respiratory muscles, nasal
flaring,
intercostal/suprasternal/supracla
vicular retraction, or a
paradoxical breathing.
b. Sweating
c. Tachycardia
d. Hypertension (hypotension and
bradycardia are late signs)
e. Altered mental status- ranging
from agitation to coma and
seizures
f. Cyanosis central and peripheral
2. Arterial blood gases
3. Pulse oximetry
- Extremely useful monitor
- Estimates arterial saturation
- The relationship between saturation
and PaO2 is described by
Oxyhemoglobin Dissociation Curve
- Desaturation ~94% is critical
threshold because below this level a
small fall in PaO2 produces sharp
fall in SpO2.
- Conversely, a rise in an arterial
PaO2 has little effect on saturation.
- The main determinant of O2 content
of blood and O2 delivery to tissues is
the SATURATION, not the PaO2.

Pulse oximetry
- common source of error is poor peripheral
perfusion which will lead to a discrepancy between
the heart rate displayed by the pulse oximetry and
HR measure by the ECG
- other sources of error : bilirubine pigments, false
nails or nail varnish, bright ambient light, poorly
adherent probe, excessive motion, methaemoglobin
& carboxyhemoglobin.
