UTA Nurs 5315 Mod 6 Pulm & Shock Questions With
Complete Solutions
_____ distribution of ventilation and perfusion is required for
effective gas exchange Correct Answer Equal
________ compliance means that the lungs and chest wall are
difficult to inflate Correct Answer decreased
A decrease in CO leads to activation of ___ & ___ which
worsesns the shock state Correct Answer RAAS
release of catecholamines (fluid retention, systemic
vasoconstriction and tachycardia) which increases afterload and
preload
A PE which sits on the ______________________ is a very
serious situation and called a _____ Correct Answer
bifurcation of the pulmonary artery
Saddle Embolus
Alveolar ventilation an only be assessed by measuring a
__________ Correct Answer PaCO2
At what gestational age is surfactant produced and at what
gestational age is it secreted by the fetal airways? Correct
Answer 20-24 weeks
30 weeks
bronchoconstriction naturally ____________________ Correct
Answer increases airway resistance
caused by smooth muscles of PNS
, CAP has an ______ whereas PCP presents ________. Correct
Answer acute onset
insidiously
CF is what kind of a gene disorder? Correct Answer single
gene disorder, autosomal recessive
CF results in a Correct Answer failure of the chloride channels:
they are unable to secrete chloride out of the cell and the cell
increases absorption of Na->water moves intracellulary->less

in premature ones
Clinical manifestations of a PE can be ________. Correct
Answer vague
Compliance ______ with COPD Correct Answer increases
COPD results in _____ and is preventable and treatable. Correct
Answer Obstruction of airflow
cor pulmonale Correct Answer right ventricular hypertrophy
and heart failure due to pulmonary hypertension
Define cardiogenic shock Correct Answer collapse of the
circulatory system secondary to pump failure
