Определение respiratory distress syndrome в Английский Язык Английский Язык словарь
A respiratory disease of newborn babies, especially premature babies, characterized by distressful breathing, cyanosis, and the formation of a glassy membrane over the alveoli of the lungs. Also called hyaline membrane disease. or hyaline membrane disease Common complication in newborns, especially after premature birth. Symptoms include very laboured breathing, bluish skin tinge, and low blood oxygen levels. Insufficient surfactant in the pulmonary alveoli raises surface tension, hampering lung expansion. The alveoli collapse (see atelectasis), and a "glassy" (hyaline) membrane develops in the alveolar ducts. Once the leading cause of death in premature infants, the syndrome is now usually treated for a few days with a mechanical ventilator (see respiratory therapy), with no aftereffects. An adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) can follow lung injury
an acute lung disease of the newborn (especially the premature newborn); lungs cannot expand because of a wetting agent is lacking; characterized by rapid shallow breathing and cyanosis and the formation of a glassy hyaline membrane over the alveoli
defined by acute onset of diffuse pulmonary infiltrates and hypoxemia in the absence of cardiac failure; or evidence of diffuse capillary leak manifested by acute onset of generalized edema, or pleural or peritoneal effusions with hypoalbuminemia
This is a syndrome, (constellation of symptoms and signs) in which the lung reacts to a severe shock-like condition to the body such as multiple trauma, severe infection, aspiration, etc in an otherwise healthy individual with no previous manifestation of lung disease Within 24-48 hours after the precipitating event in patients at risk to develop ARDS, the lungs become severely inflamed and scarred (fibrosis) interfering with the gas (02, CO2) exchange function of the lungs
acute lung injury characterized by coughing and rales; inflammation of the lungs which become stiff and fibrous and cannot exchange oxygen; occurs among persons exposed to irritants such as corrosive chemical vapors or ammonia or chlorine etc
a clinical syndrome that includes pulmonary insufficiency caused by sepsis, trauma, severe metabolic conditions or exposure to toxic gases; clinical manifestations include arterial hypoxemia (low oxygen) and the presence of bilateral infiltrates in the lung
