HYPOventilation
Give this one a try later!
insufficient air delivery to alveoli to provide adequate O2 delivery & CO2
removal
hyPO means LOW
S/S of common cold/rhinitis
Give this one a try later!
, - Contagious before S/S appear out to a week after they appear
- Acute self-limiting disease:
↑ nasal secretions, lacrimation, swelling and redness of respiratory tract,
sore throat, hoarseness, HA, fever, chills
Pulmonary Venous Thromboembolism
Give this one a try later!
A blood clot that goes to the blood vessels in your lungs
TB
Give this one a try later!
- most common disease worldwide
- contagious infection in the lungs caused by bacteria
- most commonly occurs in lungs but can infect adrenal glands, vertebrae,
meninges, lymph nodes
Pathogenesis for lung cancer: SMALL CELL CARNICOMA (Oat cell)
Give this one a try later!
, - Develops in bronchial tree
- Causes airway compression & wheezing
- Rapid growth
- Widespread metastasis
- Most difficult to treat
- more aggressive than non-small cell cancers
How is acute bronchitis diagnosed?
Give this one a try later!
Clinical presentations are useful in diagnosing
- acute cough
- purulent sputum
- elevated WBC
chest x-rays can be done to rule out pneumonia
How is common cold/rhinitis diagnosed?
Give this one a try later!
complete blood count (CBC) may show a high number of lymphocytes w/
viral infection & a high number of neutrophils w/ bacterial infection
Etiology for Acute Bronchitis
Give this one a try later!
, - Acute inflammation of trachea & bronchi
- Highest incidence: Smokers, Young children, Elderly, Winter months
- 80% viral in origin
- Other causes: Bacterial infections, Smoking, Toxic exposures, Allergic
reactions
- respiratory viruses are most common causes, like Flu A/B
How does oxygen from the environment get into the tissues?
Give this one a try later!
by diffusion: CO2 & O2 move by diffusion
movement of gas from an area of high concentration to an area of low
concentration (it's a gradient)
it's dissolved in plasma or binds to hemoglobin
Secondary pneumothorax
Give this one a try later!
Underlying lung disease leads to weakened small airways which collapse
with respirations
How is interstitial lung disease diagnosed?
Give this one a try later!
