Defination
It is when the pulmonary system and cardiac system fail to maintain an adequate exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the lungs
Pathophysiology
It implies the inability to maintain either the normal delivery of oxygen to tissues or normal removal of carbon dioxide from the tissues.
When the body fails to transfer oxygen across the alveolus, to transport the tissues (by cardiac output) or to remove carbon dioxide from the blood into the alveolus with subsequent exhalation into the environment can lead to a respiratory failure.
