PAE can occur as a consequence of heart failure. Depending upon the extent of left ventricular failure, pulmonary edema can vary widely in severity. To anticipate potential health care needs and, ultimately, to treat PAE, the critical care nurse identifies common nursing diagnoses. Once the nurse understands the physiologic or psychological mechanisms for the particular nursing diagnoses, he or she can serve as a reference point to identify expected nursing outcomes.
急性肺水肿（PAE）可能是心力衰竭的结果。根据左心室衰竭的程度，肺水肿的严重程度可能有很大差异。为了预测潜在的医疗需求并最终治疗急性肺水肿，重症护理护士需要确定常见的护理诊断。一旦护士了解了特定护理诊断的生理或心理机制，他或她就可以作为确定预期护理结果的参考点。
