You do not have interstitial compartment of the fluid in case of the pulmonary circulation. So that air is present in the very tiny alveoli. They are there in millions. Oxygen and carbon bi oxide is exchanged here almost instantly. In case of the pulmonary oedema, you get fluid here in the alveoli. The condition that is very similar to which you get the drowning. In case of the pulmonary oedema the patient is literally get drowned in his own body fluid.

Is PAH the same as pulmonary hypertension?

Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) is a specific type of pulmonary hypertension characterized by high blood pressure in the pulmonary arteries, primarily due to narrowing or blockage of these vessels. While all PAH is a form of pulmonary hypertension, not all pulmonary hypertension is PAH; pulmonary hypertension can also result from other conditions such as left heart disease, lung diseases, or chronic blood clots. Therefore, PAH is a subset of the broader category of pulmonary hypertension.


Is edema and beri beri are the same?

No, edema and beriberi are not the same. Edema refers to the swelling caused by the accumulation of fluid in tissues, which can result from various medical conditions. Beriberi, on the other hand, is a disease caused by a deficiency of thiamine (vitamin B1), leading to symptoms such as weakness, nerve damage, and cardiovascular issues. While both conditions can involve fluid-related symptoms, they stem from different causes and have distinct implications for health.
