Restrictive Lung Disease Flashcards
What does PTA stand for?
Prior to admission
What does DOE stand for?
Dyspnea on exertion
On an x-ray honeycombing and relatively hyperlucent areas are indicative of what disease?
Pulmonary fibrosis
Asthma, bronchiectasis, chronic bronchitis, cystic fibrosis, and emphysema are all examples of what type of lung disease?
Obstructive
Define restrictive lung disease
Lung disease wherein lung volumes are decreased either by parenchymal changes or by disease of the pleura, Chest wall, or neuromuscular function
What are some of the clinical findings of restrictive lung disease?
Progressive exertional dyspnea Dry cough Hemoptysis Pleuritic chest pain Hypoxemia
Restrictive lung disease can be divided into What two classifications?
Parenchymal
Extraparenchymal
What are some examples of parenchymal etiology?
Interstitial inflammation
Interstitial fibrosis
Airspace congestion with exudate or debris
What are some examples of extraparenchymal etiology?
Chestwall
Pleurae
Neuromuscular
How is kyphoscoliosis related to restrictive lung disease?
It causes a loss of volume due to chest wall changes
Be sure to look at all of the pictures
Because we all know Dr. Hall likes to put up the same picture 50 times and then just talk about it and not give us any real notes
Coalworkers disease is an example of what type of restrictive lung disease?
Parenchymal
What are some examples of parenchymal restrictive lung disease?
If you can't pronounce it and it ends with "sis" it's probably parenchymal.... Aluminosis Ankylosing spondylitis Bagassosis Byssinosis Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage Drug induced Sarcoidosis Scleroderma
What are some examples of extraparenchymal restrictive lung disease?
Kyphoscoliosis
Obesity (morbid or otherwise)
Thoracoplasty
Pleural-based. Disease
List some of the ways the pleurae can become damaged…
Chylothorax Fibrothorax Hemothorax Pneumothorax Pleural effusion
