Overview
Common causes of respiratory failure include pneumonia, pulmonary edema, pulmonary embolism, acute respiratory distress syndrome, atelectasis, asthma, COPD, neuromuscular and chest wall disorders, inadequate post-operative analgesia, smoking, obesity and shock.
Causes
Life-threatening Causes
- Life-threatening causes of respiratory failure include chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, acute on chronic respiratory failure, pulmonary infection, pulmonary embolism, heart failure, cardiac arrhythmia and lung cancer.[1]
Causes of respiratory failure include:[2]
- Type I respiratory failure:
- Pneumonia
- Cardiogenic pulmonary edema
- Caused by increased hydrostatic pressure in the pulmonary capillaries
- Non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema
- Caused by increased permeability in the pulmonary capillaries
- Acute lung injury
- Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)
- Pulmonary embolism
- Atelectasis
- Pulmonary fibrosis
- Type II respiratory failure:
- Central hypoventilation
- Asthma
- Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
- Hypoxemia and hypercapnia often coexist
- Neuromuscular and chest wall disorders
- Obesity hypoventilation syndrome
- Type III respiratory failure:
- Type IV respiratory failure:
Drugs that can cause respiratory failure
Common drugs that can cause respiratory failure include:[4][5]
- Azacitidine
- Codeine
- Clozapine
- Fentanyl
- Gamma-Hydroxybutyric acid
- Heroin
- Ketamine
- Lidocaine
- Labetalol
- Lorazepam
- Morphine
- Nitrazepam
- Opiate
- Oxymorphone
- Procainamide (patient information)
- Sodium thiopental
- Triazolam
- Zopiclone
