1. What is pulmonary disease? Type of disease that attects the lungs and other
associated parts of the respiratory system.
2. Describe pulmonary disease Acute, obstructive, chronic or infec-
tious/non-infectious
3. Pulmonary disease can be associated True - the heart in particular
with other organs - True or False
4. Signs and symptoms of pulmonary dis- -Dyspnea
ease (8) -Cough
-Sputum
-Pain
-Cyanosis
-Clubbing
-Hemopysis
-Abnormal breathing patterns
5. Coughing up blood hemoptysis
6. What is kussmal respiration? increased respirations and tidal volumes
7. Alternating breathing patterns of deep cheyne-stokes
and shallow breathing
8. What is hypoxemia reduced oxygenation of arterial blood
9. What is hypoxia? deficiency in the amount of oxygen reaching
the tissues
10. What happens in respiratory failure? Defined as inadequate gas exchange. Can re-
sult from injury to lungs, airway or chest wall or
indirectly from disease to other body systems

11. What is flail chest? Results from fractures of ribs, which allow ribs
to move independently during respiration
12. Clinical manifestations flail chest? (5) -Pain in chest
-Tenderness
-Diflculty breathing
-Bruising and inflammation
-Paradoxical movement when breathing
13. What is primary (spontaneous) pneu- occurs when a small air blister (bleb) on the top
mothorax? of the lung ruptures
14. What is secondary pneumothorax? Caused by disease, trauma, injury, or condition
15. What causes iatrogenic pneumothorax? transthoracic needle aspiration
16. When is the difference between open Open air pressure enters into pleural space
and closed pneumothorax? during inspiration and exits during expiration.
Closed air does not escape pleural space dur-
ing expiration
17. Presence of fluid in plural space pleural ettusion
18. Collection of blood in the pleural space hemothorax
19. Presence of pus in the plural space Empyema
20. what is a restrictive lung disorder decrease compliance of the lung tissue
21. What is the impact from restrictive lung Individuals experience dyspnea, increased res-
disorders? piratory rate, and decreased tidal volume

the lung

23. Clinical manifestations of aspiration? -Sudden onset of choking
-Intractable cough
-fever

-Wheezing
24. Collapse of lung tissue atelectasis
25. What are the 3 types of atelectasis? - Compression
- Absorption
- Surfactant
26. Clinical manifestations of atelectasis? (4) -Dyspnea
-Fever
-Cough
-Leukocytosis
27. persistant abnormal dilation of the Bronchiectasis
bronchi
28. clinical manifestations include: chronic bronchiectasis
productive cough, a lot of foul smelling
sputum, hemoptysis and clubbing
29. excessive amount of fibrous or connec- pulmonary fibrosis
tive tissue in the lungs
30. Pathophysiology of pulmonary fibrosis caused by formation of scar tissue after ac-
tive pulmonary diseases, autoimmune disor-
ders, arthritis, or inhalation injuries - chronic
inflammation leads to fibrosis and marked loss
of lung compliance

Can occur in otherwise healthy individu-
als in association with an upper or lower
respiratory tract infection
32. excess water in the lungs pulmonary edema
33. causes of pulmonary edema left sided heart disease or capillary injury
34. clinical manifestations of pulmonary -Dyspnea
edema? (5) -Hypoxemia
-increased work of breathing
-Crackles (rales)
-Dullness on percussion
35. Treatment for pulmonary edema depends on cause - left sided heart failure:
diuretics, vasodilators and medications, capil-
lary injury: maintain adequate ventilation and
circulation
36. Represents a spectrum of acute lung in- acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)
flammation and defuse alveolocapillary
injury
37. Clinical manifestations of ARDS? (6) -dyspnea
-hyperventilation
-decreased perfusion
-organ dysfunction
-increased work of breathing
-decreased tidal volume
38. What is asthma? chronic lung disease causing narrowing and
inflammation of the airways particularly the
bronchi and bronchioles
