NUR-307 Peds:Quiz 2 Group Perfomance
Questions And Verified Answers



\.ventilation

inspiration and expiration
the flow of gas in and out of the lungs

\.diffusion

process by which 02 and C02 are exchanged at the air-blood interface. Through the alveolar-
capillary membrane

\.Perfusion

actual blood flow through the pulmonary circulation. The blood is pumped into the lungs by the
right ventricle through the pulmonary artery.

\.LOW V/Q imbalance

is reduced ventilation when unoxygenated blood moves from right to left side of heart
SHUNT normal shunt

\.NORMAL in V/Q imbalance

we want the ventilation perfusion to be 4:5=0.8 if it doesn't happen then SHUNT can happen
were the 2% of unoxygenated blood can increase and cause problem in the body

\.HIGH V/Q

Dead space
is adequated ventilation to impaired perfusion
results in hypoxia
02 may help but perfusion is impaired

\.Silent Unit V/Q ventilation

is absence of both ventilation and perfusion
shunt and dead space

, \.RESP Age Consideration

decline in early-middle adulthood
age 40-change in alveoli
age 50- lose elasticity
loss of chest wall
increase dead space

\.RESP RISK FACTOR

smoking
2nd hand smoking
genetic
allergens
occupational exposure

\.Assessment of Resp Disease

health history- dyspnea, cough, sputum, chest pain, cyanosis, wheezing, family history
diagnostic evaluation- ABG,Sp02, MRI,PET, pulmonary angiography, lung scans,

\.Allen Test

check hand circulation by occluding the radial and ulnar arteries

\.Obstructive Sleep Apnea definition (OSA)

is the recurrent upper airway obstruction and reduced ventilation with cessation of breathing
through sleep

\.Obstructive sleep apnea increase risk

increase risk- hypertension, heart attack, stroke, death
seen- men, older adult, obese

\.clinical manifestation, diagnosis, management, OSA

S/S-loud snoring, cessation of breathing, abrupt awakening, insominia, excessive daytime
sleepiness, irritability, HTN,
diagnosis-sleep study,eeg, symptoms
management- wt loss, oral appliance, CPAP,surgery, meds (provigil)

\.CPAP

continuous positive airway pressure
keeps upper airway and trachea open to prevent resp failure
