Study These Flashcards
A
  • more than twice a week
  • any

  • more than twice a week
  • less than 80% predicted
22
Q

what are the uncontrolled asthma daytime symptoms, limitations of actions, nocturnal symptoms, need for rescue meds, and lung function

Study These Flashcards
A

three or more features of partially controlled asthma present in any week

23
Q

what are the types of asthma

Study These Flashcards
A
  • extrinsic (allergic)
  • exercise induced
  • intrinsic
  • drug induced
24
Q

describe intrinsic and other names for it

Study These Flashcards
A
  • idiosyncractic, nonallergic, nonatopic
  • second most common
  • middle aged individuals
  • triggered by respiratory irritants (tobacco, air pollution, emotional stress, gastro reflux)
  • infrequently association with family hx
  • normal IgE levels
25
what is the pathway for intrinsic asthma
- allergen -> lymphocytes -> activation of mast cells, basophils, and eosinophils -> bradykinin, histamine, leukotrienes, interleukins -> bronchoconstriction
26
what are the considerations for patients with asthma
- medications - level of control/severity - how often do you use your inhaler - does your inhaler have a spacer - how many attacks per week - do you have any night time attacks - have you ever been to ER or hospitalized from an attack - do you have a spirometer to keep a record of your lung function
27
what is status asthmaticus
severe prolonged asthma attack ( more than 24 hours ) -> life threatening
28
what is the drug of choice for an acute asthma attack
short acting beta 2 adgrenergic agonist (inhaler)
29
what drugs should you avoid with asthma
- aspirin, NSAIDs, narcotics, macrolide antibiotics like erythromycin - sulfite (preservative) containing local anesthetic may need to be avoided - nitrous (better) - short acting benzodiazepine
30
what is the presentation of an asthma emergency
- respiratory rate greater than 25 breaths/min, labored breathing - tachycardio greater than 110 beats/min - flushed appearance
31
what should you do with asthma attack emergency
- stop treatment, inform supervising faculty, administer O2 and call 4444 - remove all items from pt mouth - recrod the time attack began - raise the dental chair - give short acting beta 2 adrenergic agonist inhaler - administer O2 - administer 0.3-0.5mL of 1:1000 epi - small doses are Sm dilators - call an ambulance - re administer short acting B2 adrenergic agonist every 20 minutes until EMS arrives - the emergency team will continue treating the pt with bronchodilators and oral systemic corticosteroids
32
what are the types of COPD
- bronchitis - emphysems
33
what is bronchiolitis
- chronic obstruction of small airways - excessive tracheobronchial mucus production to cause coughing and sputum production for greater than or equal to 3 months for greater than or equal to 2 consective years in the absence of infection or other causes of chronic cough
34
what is emphysema
- longterm chronic obstructive bronchiolitis leads to destruction of lung parenchyma and alveolar walls - decreased elastic recoil - difficulty in maintaining airway opening during expiration
35
what is type II
type II is a progression of type I leading many to just use these as descriptive terms for COPD
36
COPD is the ______ leading cause of death in the US
third
37
what are the aggravating/complicating factors for COPD
- smoking - air pollutants - industrial or urban - CVD - morbidity
38
what are the signs and symptoms of COPD
- dyspnea - cough - sputum
39
what is the tx for COPD
- inhaled long acting bronchodilators - corticosteroids if asthma also present and/or more reversible obstruction - smoking cessation is the only intervention that actually lessens disease progression
40
what are the meds to treat asthma/COPD
- short acting beta 2 agonists : albuterol - anti cholinergics: atrovent and spiriva - methylxanthines: theophylline - corticosteoids: dexxamethasone, fludrocortisone, methylprednisone, prednisone - leukotriene receptor antagonists: singulair - combination inhalers: advair (fluticasone/salmeterol) and symbicort (budesonide/formoterol)
41
what are the oral manifestations of COPD
- dry mouth - steven johnson syndrome with theophylline
42
dry mouth and steven johnson syndrome with theophylline exacerbate smoking side effects of:
- halitosis - tooth staining - nicotine stomatitis - periodontal disease - oral potenitally malignant disorders: leukoplakia and erythroplakia - oral SCC
43
when do you need a med consult for COPD
in mild to moderate COPD to determine the presence of respiratory failure right sides heart failure
44
when do you consider dental tx in a hospital setting
COPD stage III or higher or who have respiratory and heart failure
45
what do you do with greater than stage III COPD pt
- place the pt in a semi supine position to avoid respiratory distress - avoid using a rubber dam - avoid treating if upper respiratory infection is present - local anesthetic with epi is accetable - may need to limit epi is CVD too
46
what do you avoid in treatment of COPD pt
- barbituates - narcotics - NO is contraindicated - benzodiazepines- low dose may be acceptable in certain situations- consult physician - erythromycin, macrolide ABs such as clarithromycin, azithromycin and ciprofloxacin should not be presscribed to COPD patients already taking theophylline - can cause theophylline toxicity
47
what are the general, cardiovascular, respiratory, GI, and neurological symptoms of theophylline toxicity
- general: agitation, irritability, restlessness -cardiovascular: sinus tachycardia, ventricular tachycardia atrial fibrillation, supraventricular tachycardia, hypotension, cardiac arrest - respiratory: tachypnea, acute lung injury, respiratory alkalosis - GI: nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain - neurological: tremors, hallucinations, seizures
48
what are the low level interventions
- health/med eval - exams - dental prophy - radiographs - optical oral scans
49
what are the moderate level interventions
- SRP - simple restorative procedures; 1-2 teeth - simple extractions; 1-2 teeth - impressions
50
what are the high risk interventions
- complex restorative procedures on more than 2 teeth - mulitple extractions - surgical extractions - implant placement - full arch impressions - dental care under general anesthesia
