Which disorder is caused by inhalation of organic substances?
-fiffuse interstitial lung disease
-hypersensitivity pneumonitis
-sarcoidosis
-acute respiratory distress syndrome - ANSWER-
HYPERSENSIVITITY PNEUMONITIS
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis is caused by inhalation of organic
substances that produces an inflammatory immunologic
reaction. Diffuse interstitial lung disease is probably related to
an immune reaction but not from inhalation of organic
substances. Sarcoidosis likely has an immunologic basis, but not
from inhalation of organic substances. Acute respiratory distress
syndrome is associated with severe trauma, sepsis, and shock.
Respiratory acidosis may be caused by:
-hyperventilation
,2|Page
-massive blood transfusion
-tissue hypoxia
-hypoventilation - ANSWER-HYPOVENTILATION
Hypoventilation causes carbonic acid retention and respiratory
acidosis. Hyperventilation causes excretion of too much
carbonic acid and respiratory alkalosis. The liver metabolizes
the citrate in transfused blood into bicarbonate. Tissue hypoxia
causes lactic acid production during anaerobic metabolism and
metabolic acidosis.
A restrictive respiratory disorder is characterized by:
-increased total lung capacity
-decreased residual volume
-inspiratory wheezing
-expiratory wheezing - ANSWER-DEC RESIDUAL VOL
Restrictive respiratory disorders are characterized by decreased
residual volume. Restrictive respiratory disorders are not
characterized by increased residual volume. Inspiratory and
expiratory wheezing are not characteristic of restrictive
respiratory disorder.

Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors block the:
-release of rennin
-conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II
-conversion of angiotensinogen to angiotensin I
-effect of aldosterone on the kidney - ANSWER-CONVERSION OF
ANGIOTENSIN I TO ANGIOTENSIN II
Angiotensin I is converted into angiotensin II while it is
circulating through the pulmonary vessels, by the angiotensin-
converting enzyme. ACE inhibitors block the conversion of
angiotension I to angiotension II. Renin plays a role in the
regulation of arterial blood pressure. ACE inhibitors do not
block the conversion of angiotensinogen to angiotensin or the
effect of aldosterone on the kidney.
If an individual has a fully compensated metabolic acidosis, the
blood pH is:
-high
-low
, 4|Page
-in the normal range
-either high or low, depending on the type of compensation -
ANSWER-IN THE NORMAL RANGE
The blood pH is in the normal range if an individual has fully
compensated for an acid-base imbalance. High blood pH
indicates alkalosis. Low blood pH indicates uncompensated or
partially compensated acidosis.
Chronic bronchitis often leads to cor pulmonale because of:
-ventricular hypoxia
-increased pulmonary vascular resistance
-left ventricular strain
-hypervolemia - ANSWER-INC PULMONARY VASCULAR
RESISTANCE
Chronic bronchitis often leads to cor pulmonale as a result of
increased pulmonary vascular resistance when right ventricular
end-diastolic pressure increases. Ventricular hypoxia, left
ventricular strain, and hypervolemia do not lead to cor
pulmonale.
