Overview
Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis
Natural History
- Respiration acidosis(primary hypercapnia), is the acid-base ailment that consequences from an increase in carbon dioxide in the body.
- Acute respiratory acidosis happens with respiratory failure, which could result from any unexpected respiratory parenchymal, airways (eg, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ), pleural, chest wall, neuromuscular eg, spinal cord damage, or central nervous system disorders.
- Chronic respiratory acidosis can result from several procedures and is typified by way of a sustained increase in arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide, ensuing in renal adaptation, and an extra marked increase in plasma bicarbonate.
- Mechanisms of respiratory acidosis include increased carbon dioxide production, alveolar hypoventilation, abnormal breathing drive, abnormalities of the chest wall and respiratory muscles, and accelerated dead space.
- Despite the fact that the symptoms, signs, and physiologic results of respiratory acidosis are numerous, the major consequences are on the central nervous and cardiovascular systems.
Complications
- Poor organ function
- Respiratory failure
- Shock
Prognosis
Prognosis depends on the disease causing the respiratory acidosis.
