Assess

Assess ABGs, ensure airway, assess the work of breathing, auscultate breath
sounds, check pulse ox and cardiac monitoring
Assess the breathing of any patient at increased risk for ARDS
Hyperpnea, noisy respiration, cyanosis, pallor, and retraction
Sweating, respiratory effort, and any change in mental status
Abnormal lung sounds are not heard on auscultation
Edema occurs first in the interstitial spaces and not in the airways
V/S hourly for hypotension, tachycardia, and dysrhythmias.
Monitor for fever
Patient will be on ventilator
