Autor: H K



Respuesta:

Tachypnea (25-30), tachycardia (100-120) [universal] diffuse wheezes (but don't show severity) if wheeze with inspiration and expiration, loud or high-pitched this indicates large airway obstruction, and in very severe cases it may be absent -->poor air movement and respiratory failure. Prolonged expiration (due to obstruction), chest hyperinflation (trapped air), accessory muscle use and pulsus paradoxus (severe airflow obstruction), cyanosis and mental obtundation (acute hypercarbic acidosis in extreme cases)
