(SATA?)
*antimicrobials*
- isoniazid,
- rifampin
- pyrazinamide
- ethambutol
**they will have to take these "long-term" (6-9 mo.)** - correct answer-✅Medications to treat
tuberculosis
- no ETOH
- medication compliance - stick with the doses, continue all the way through
- f/u with doctor appointments - correct answer-✅Patient Education: *Long-term antibiotics*
(SATA?)
- sputum culture
**PPD test is NOT for diagnosing, it does NOT mean active exposure** - correct answer-✅How do you
diagnose tuberculosis?
*hepatotoxic*
- no ETOH
- no drugs
- eat a diet with quality protein; iron; vitamins A, B, C, and E; and abundant fresh produce
- no other use of hepatotoxic medications - correct answer-✅What do antimicrobials do to the body?
And what patient education goes along with that?
(SATA?)
asthma - correct answer-✅__________ is a chronic intermittent airway obstruction caused by
inflammation of the airway tissues that results in **bronchoconstriction**
▪ Intermittent and **reversible** airflow obstruction affecting airways only, **not alveoli**
complete airway obstruction
intubation/tracheotomy....keep that airway patent - priority! - correct answer-✅I think this is about
*status asthmaticus*:
, A patient comes in with asthma...you listen to their lungs and they have lung sounds...then you lose lung

(SATA?)
improve gas exchange - correct answer-✅Overall goal for Emphysema/COPD patients
Yes! Permanent damage to alveoli. Not reversible. - correct answer-✅Are emphysema/COPD
permanent?
