Although often chronic in nature, respiratory disease commonly presents, in an emergency setting, as an acute exacerbation of disease. Patients in respiratory distress require immediate attention and therapy. These patients often present a challenge to the clinician, who has limited time to perform a physical examination and make a rapid assessment. Case examples: Asthma in a cat; Haemothorax in a dog; Chronic bronchitis in a dog; Brachycephalic airway obstruction syndrome in a dog; Tracheal collapse in a dog. |
