When a patient of pulmonary edema presents in a hospital there is two lines of management that should be done. The first and foremost assess for ABCD protocol. Make the patient sit up or prop them up. Give oxygen supplementation. Maintain an iv line, send samples for a troponin test and ABGs. Give a shot of furosemide, give a sedative preferably morphine to decrease apprehension and control blood pressure, Assess for BIPAP or CPAP need. If needed patient can be given arterial line, CVP and ventilator.
