Q

Ventilation to Perfusion Ratio (V/Q)

A

-Norm: 0.8

Reduced: decreased ventilation to perfusion, blood shunted to other parts of the lung, vasoconstriction at arterioles to reduce BV, corrected with O2

Increased: increased ventilation to perfusion, vasodilation to increase BV, dead space

Home exercise:
Patient sitting < inhale trough nose normally < hands down by feet in a slouched position as you exhale through PURSED LIPS < inhale normally through nose as you come back to start

Postural Drainage

A

Prone (head down): superior lobes, posterior basal

Sidelying (head down a little): lateral lobes

Supine: anterior lobes, middle lobe

Forward Lean: posterior and superior lobes2

74
Q

Percussion

A

Explain: To loosen and remove secretions i’m going to do some cupping and precussion, Show on leg

Position to help gravity drain into larger areas < cup hands and percusses for 15-30s < reasses vitals < repeat 3x < add vibration on exhale < reasses vitals

CONTRAINDICATIONS:
-hemmorage, emoblism, new babies with respiratory issues, subcutaneous emphysema, pneumothorax, bone issues, osteoporosis

-COPD: can cause spasms, pursed lip exhalation, more secretions

75
Q

Vibration

A

-used on chest wall during exhalation
-can be used when percussion not tollerated

CONTRAINDICATIONS:
-hemmorage, emoblism, new babies with respiratory issues, subcutaneous emphysema, pneumothorax, bone issues, osteoporosis

-COPD: can cause spasms, pursed lip exhalation, more secretions

76
Q

Special Considerations for Airway Clearance with COPD

A

Percussion can cause spasms, pursed lip exhalation, more secretions
-avoid forced exhalation
-head down might not be tolerated

77
Q

Coughing

A

Explain: I’m going to teach you how to prepare and to cough to best clear the lungs of secretions

Position: upright with towel <Teach Thoracic Expansion < hold on inspiration < Recruit abdominals by tightening muscles like preparing for a punch < hunch over and cough into napkin

CONTAINDICATIONS:
-surgical incisions, aortic aneryism, hemmorage, wounds, tolerance

78
Q

Huffing

A

Explain: I’m going to teach you another technique when coughing isn’t working. It is more of a forced breath like fogging up your glasses

Sit patient upright with towel < segmental thoracic expansion < hold on inspiration < recruit abs < open mouth on an “O” and huff while flexing trunk

-good for noneffective coughs, COPD less forced exhale

79
Q

Active Cycle Breathing Technique

A

Explain: We will combine deep breathing, huffing, and coughing

Relaxed diaphragmatic breathing < gradually breathing deeper (note crackles early are large airways and late are small airways) < Add thoracic expansion < inspire and hold 3s < relaxed exhalation in sigh < 1-2 huffs < if felt in upper airways cough gently < relax breathing

80
Q

Autogenic Breathing

A

-self drainage to control mucus

Explain: Self drainage to control mucus

-breathe normally, breath diaphragmatically for 3-4 breaths, exhale completely, inhale maximally, let me know when you feel secretions

Level 1: Unsticking of mucus
-avoid coughing < exhale completely < inhale a small breath and hold 1-3s < repeated until crackles are heard

Level 2: Collecting the mucus
- avoid coughing < slighly larger breath < hold for 1-3s < slight exhale < repeat until crackles heard at the end of exhale < continue for 2-3 more breaths

Level 3: Evacuating mucus
-slow deep breath < hold 1-3s < exhale forcefully in a < spit out secretion < if not, do 2-3 large huffs

81
Q

Patient Paced Diaphragmatic Breathing (Emphysema)

A

-allows for ambulation, prevents dypnea, helps with management of dypnea

Explain: I’m going to teach you how to breathe properly during different activities to conserve your energy while we move.
-you will inhale normally and exhale through pursed lips

Supine < Palpate diaphragm and tell to breathe into hand < exhale and PURSE LIPS during transitional mmt (roll to sit) < put on gait belt < show relief position if needed (bend over and breathe into belly) < reminder to pace themselves < walk and guard

82
Q

Diaphragmatic Breathing (Obstructive/Emphysema))

A

-ease breathing in a controlled manner
-in all positions

Explain: I’m going to teach you a breathing technique tha focuses on using your diaphragm so you can do less work to breathe

Position patient upright < palpate diaphram and place Pt hand on it and upper chest < instruct them to breath in through the nose REGULARLY and slowly through their mouth with PURSED LIPS < encourage them to feel it more in their belly than chest

83
Q

Emphysema

A

-COPD
-Obstructive
-red skin, skinny, pursed lips
-working hard to exhale air, can still oxygenate
-hypercompliant lung balloons alveoli trapping air

-O2 desaturation during exercise

Panacinar: alveoli only, genetic
Centrilobular: bronchioles only, progression of bronchitis

84
Q

Chronic Bronchitis

A

-COPD
-obstructive
-inflamation of bronchioles obstructing/narrowing airway and increasing mucous/cough

85
Q

Segmental Thoracic Expansion

A

-place hand in diaphragm under constal angle < instruct to breathe into hand < place other hand low on sides of ribs < instruct to breathe into hand < place first hand into upper ribs; apical (not sternum) < instruct to breath into hand
