What happens in a patient with a pneumothorax?
mucous fills the interior portion of the lung
air fills the pleural spaces, pushing the trachea to the left or right
the lungs collapse, leading to the patient needing intubation
fluid fills into pleural spaces causing the patient to aspirate.

Atelectasis?
inflamed mucous membranes
collapsed lungs leading to airway obstruction
