    - - If other complications arise IE respiratory failure, fluid buildup
- - - - Bacteria from upper airways migrate to lung parenchyma
        
        Inflammatory response begins as macrophages go to infectious source in alveoli
        
        Overwhelmed macrophages create fibrin-rich exudate (pus) that fills the alveoli along with infectious agents
        
        Decreased Gas Exchange and Poor Lung Expansion due to pus-filled alveoli
        
        Compensatory Hyperventilation occurs due to oxygen deprivation and carbon dioxide retention
        
        Uncompensated Respiratory Alkalosis

        Consolidation occurs due to excessive amount of fluid and debris becoming solid in the alveoli which restricts their ability to fill with air
        
        Uncontrolled bacteria leaks through alveoli into blood stream via capillaries due to increased capillary permeability
        
        Bacteremia
        
        Systematic inflammatory response occurs due to bacteria in bloodstream
