Which of the following is an example of an intrinsic restrictive lung disease?
A. Kyphoscoliosis
B. ALS
C. Sarcoidosis
D. Myasthenia gravis - CORRECT ANSWER-C) Sarcoidosis affects the lung
tissue itself.
What is the pathophysiological consequence of thickened alveolar-capillary
membranes?
A. Improved gas exchange
B. Hypercapnia
C. Impaired oxygen diffusion
D. Enhanced compliance - CORRECT ANSWER-C) Thickened membranes
slow diffusion, causing hypoxemia.
,What ABG finding might you see in advanced COPD?
A. Respiratory alkalosis
B. Normal oxygen and CO₂
C. Hypoxemia with hypercapnia
D. Elevated bicarbonate - CORRECT ANSWER-C) Chronic CO₂ retention and
oxygen deficiency are common.
Which of the following is most consistent with asthma (not COPD)?
A. Fixed airway obstruction
B. Reversible airway obstruction
C. Alveolar wall destruction
D. FEV1/FVC ratio always normal - CORRECT ANSWER-B) Asthma is
characterized by reversible bronchoconstriction.
Which of the following is NOT a feature of emphysema?
A. Air trapping
B. Destruction of alveolar walls
C. Chronic mucus production
D. Use of accessory muscles - CORRECT ANSWER-C) Mucus production is
more typical in chronic bronchitis.
Which test provides the most direct measurement of oxygenation?
, A. Spirometry
B. ABG
C. Chest X-ray
D. Pulse oximetry - CORRECT ANSWER-B) ABGs measure PaO₂ and PaCO₂
directly.
A 70-year-old man with EF of 35% and dyspnea with exertion is classified as:
A. ACC/AHA Stage A
B. Stage B
C. Stage C
D. Stage D - CORRECT ANSWER-C) Structural disease + symptoms = Stage C
heart failure.
Which of the following characterizes obstructive lung disease?
A. Decreased TLC
B. Decreased FEV1/FVC ratio
