Acute Respiratory Failure is a medical condition where the lungs cannot provide enough oxygen to the body or remove carbon dioxide effectively. This can happen suddenly due to various causes, such as pneumonia, asthma attacks, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Symptoms may include shortness of breath, rapid breathing, and confusion. Treatment for Acute Respiratory Failure often involves providing supplemental oxygen or using a ventilator to assist with breathing. Identifying and addressing the underlying cause is crucial for recovery. Early intervention can significantly improve outcomes and prevent complications related to this serious condition.
