PNEUMONIA

1. PNEUMONIA

2. PNEUMONIA IS INFLAMMATION OF THE PARENCHYMA OF THE LUNGS. MOST CASES OF PNEUMONIA ARE CAUSED BY MICROORGANISMS.

3. NONINFECTIOUS CAUSES of PNEUMONIAE • -ASPIRATION OF FOOD AND OR GASTRIC • ASID • FOREIGN BODIES • - HYDROCARBONS • LIPOID SUBTANCES • HYPERSENSITIVITY REACTIONS • DRUG • - RADIATION MAY INDUCED PNEUMONIAE

4. PNEUMONIA HAS BEEN CLASSIFIED ON AN ANOTOMIC BASIS AS A LOBAR, ALVEOLAR OR LOBULAR, OR INTERSTITIAL PROCESS
