Respiratory Acidosis Successful management of Drug-induced

Question: Describe about the Respiratory Acidosis for Successful management of Drug-induced. Answer: Respiratory Acidosis The various treatments available for respiratory acidosis are Non-invasive positive-pressure ventilation (CPAP or BiPAP), consuming bronchodilator drugs to reverse the airway obstruction. Direct breathing assistance is provided to the patient in case of acute respiratory acidosis. In severe cases, mechanical breathing assistance is provided by inserting tube in the airway (Agrafiotis et al., 2015). Apart from smoking, the other condition that leads to respiratory acidosis is severe obesity that restricts the expansion of the lungs (Parsons, 2016).
