Pulmonary Edema Pulmonary edema (swelling or fluid in the lungs) can either be caused by cardiogenic causes (congestive heart failure, heart attacks, abnormal heart valves) or noncardiogenic causes such as: ARDS, kidney failure, high altitude, pneumothorax, pleural effusion, aspirin overdose, pulmonary embolism, and.
When fluid accumulates in the lungs because of high blood pressure, you have a condition called pulmonary edema. It occurs when long-term hypertension weakens your heartâs left ventricle (normally the strongest part of your heart muscle). Fluids then back up in the lungs, making it difficult to breathe.
