________ is a common, preventable, treatable ailment characterised by means of continual
breathing signs and symptoms and airflow hindrance because of airway and alveolar
abnormalities usually resulting from large publicity to noxious debris or gases. - ANS-COPD
_________ can marginally enhance the intractable dyspnea in sufferers with COPD -
ANS-Opioids (morphine
_____________________ is not recommended for recurring use in bronchial asthma
exacerbations however it could lessen hospitalization rates in acute intense asthma. F -
ANS-IV magnesium sulfate (2g over 20 minutes)
_______is the 1/3 main cause of loss of life international - ANS-COPD
50% of bronchiectasis is due to - ANS-Cystic fibrosis
A critically decreased DLCO predicts - ANS-Exertional oxyhemoglobin desaturation and is
associated with coexisting pulmonary high blood pressure.
Acquired tracheal stenosis is normally because of - ANS-Previous tracheotomy or ET
intubation
allergic bronchial asthma is related to what other manifestations - ANS-Eczema, allergic
rhinitis, food alergies
Anticholinergic MOA - ANS-SAMA and LAMAs lower mucous gland secretion
Asthma defnition - ANS-Chronic disease of the airways concerning inflammatory cell
infiltration with eosinophils, neutrophils and lymphocytes; plugging of small airways with
mucus, easy muscle hypertrophy, edema,
Asthma is most not unusual in - ANS-Male youngsters, adult ladies,
Death rates are maximum among black humans
Asthma tiers of manage questions (there are 3) - ANS-Frequency of signs and symptoms
(days according to week)
Awakening from sleep
Use of SABA
, Asthma with chronic airflow obstacle is notion to be because of - ANS-Airway reworking
Autosomal recessive disorder, pulmonary ailment with extrapulmonary factors (eg recurrent
pancreatitis), absent vas deferens and male infertility - ANS-Cystic fibrosis
Azithromycin may be used to correctly deal with which type of bronchiolitis - ANS-Diffuse
panbronchiolitis and may sluggish development of bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome
Bronchial obstruction purpose - ANS-Retained pulmonary secretions, aspiration, FB,
bronchomalacia, neoplasm, tumor metastasis, compression from external hundreds
Bronchial obstruction symptoms - ANS-Dyspnea, cough, wheezing, if infection affords: fever
and chills
Bronchial provocation isn't recommended while - ANS-FEV1 is <65% of predicted.
Bronchial provocation uses - ANS-Inhaled histamine or methacholine
Bronchiectasis is - ANS-Permanent, abnormal dilation and destruction of bronchial walls
Bronchiolitis is - ANS-Generic term applied to varied inflammatory processes that affect he
bronchioles (small conducting airways less than 2mm in diamter
Bronchopulmonary aspergillosis is characterized by? - ANS-Eosinophilia, High IgE, episodes
marked by fever, malaise, productive cough, infiltrates on imaging
Catamenial asthma - ANS-Women that experience asthma during times in menstrual cycle
Causes of acute upper airway obstruction include - ANS-Trauma to larynx or pharynx, FBA,
Laryngospasm, edema from thermal injury, infection (ludwig angina, epiglotitis, abscess),
allergic laryngitis
Causes of tracheal obstruction - ANS-Congenital tracheal stenosis, neoplasm,
lymphadenopathy, vascular rings, FBA, granulomas and papillomas, trauma, subglottic
stenosis
CFTR gene - ANS-cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator protein
CFTR modulators medicines - ANS-Ivacaftor, lunacaftor, tezacaftor, elexacaftor
Characteristic findings of laryngomalacia - ANS-Inspiratory stridor, intercostal retractions on
inspiration, palpable inspiratory thrill over larynx, wheezing.
Common allergens - ANS-Dust mites, cockroaches, cat dander, seasonal pollens
Common complications in advanced COPD - ANS-pulmonary hypertension and cor
pulmonale, chronic respiratory failure
