Acute airway obstruction can result in life - threatening pulmonary edema. It can develop rapidly, without warning, in otherwise healthy patients. Negative pressure pulmonary edema has been described after acute airway obstruction in situations when a patient is breathing against an obstructed airway such as croup, epiglottitis or laryngospasm. In the following case, we observed a rare occurrence of pulmonary edema in a female following sedation in the prone position.
急性气道梗阻可导致危及生命的肺水肿。它可在原本健康的患者中迅速且毫无征兆地发生。负压性肺水肿已在急性气道梗阻后被描述，比如在患者对抗阻塞气道（如哮吼、会厌炎或喉痉挛）进行呼吸的情况下。在以下病例中，我们观察到一名女性在俯卧位镇静后罕见地发生了肺水肿。
