Definition
Hemoptysis is the expectoration of blood from the respiratory system.
Causes
Life Threatening Causes
Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated. Hemoptysis may be a life-threatening condition depending on the severity of bleeding and must be treated as such irrespective of the causes.
Common Causes
- Pulmonary disease
- Cardiovascular disease
- Pulmonary artery arteriovenous malformation
- Pulmonary embolism
- pulmonary hypertension
- Bronchial artery aneurysm
- Thoracic aortic aneurysm
- Aortobronchial fistula
- Others
- Coagulopathy
- Von Willebrand disease
- Haemophilia
- Trombocytopenia
- Iatrogenic
- Anticoagulation
- Trauma
- Coagulopathy

Do's
- Investigate profusely the patients medical history for possible etiology.
- Intubate patient with massive hemoptysis to protect airway.
- Determine volume and rate of blood.
- All patients need to have oxygen to maintain oxyhemoglobin saturation.
- If the bleeding is located in one lung, the patient with massive hemoptysis must be placed on lateral deceit toward side of bleeding.
- Treat massive hemoptysis in a ICU.
Dont's
- Chest CT shouldn't
