This ATI system disorder template focuses on Respiratory Failure, a life-threatening condition in which the respiratory system fails to maintain adequate gas exchange. It outlines the causes, pathophysiology, assessment findings, diagnostic tests, and nursing interventions. The template emphasizes the nurse’s role in recognizing early signs of deterioration, providing oxygen therapy, assisting with mechanical ventilation, and preventing complications. Understanding respiratory failure is critical for ensuring prompt intervention and improving patient outcomes in acute and critical care settings.
