Exam 4 Restrictive lung disease part I Flashcards
(131 cards)
restrictive lung diseases affect ____ and ____
lung expansion and compliance
slide 2
what is the hallmark of restirctive lung disease?
an inability to increase lung volume in proportion to an increase in alveolar pressure
slide 2
restricitve lung diesease is related to:
- connective tissue diseases
- environmental factors
- pulmonary fibrosis
- conditions that increase alveolar or interstitial fluid
- diseases that limit excursion of the chest/diaphragm
slide 2
the disorders that cause RLD lead to ____ surface area for gas diffusion, causing ____ and ____
- reduced
- V/Q mismatching and hypoxia
slide 2
As lung elasticity worsens, pts become symptomatic d/t
- hypoxia
- inability to clear secretions
- hypoventilation
slide 2
worsend lung elasticity in RLD causes what changes in FEV1, FVC, FEV1:FVC raito, and diffusing capacity?
- reduced FEV in the first second (FEV1)
- forced vital capacity (FVC),
- with a normal or increased FEV1:FVC ratio
- a reduced diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO)
slide 2
in RLD lung volumes are ____ , especially____.
All lung volumes are decreased, especially total lung capacity (TLC)
The principal feature of these diseases is a decrease in TLC
slide 2
what does a volume flow loop look like?
slide 3
TLC is used to classify RLD as mild, moderate, or severe:
* Mild disease:
* Moderate disease:
* Severe disease:
- Mild disease: TLC 65-80% of the predicted value
- Moderate disease: TLC 50-65% of the predicted value
- Severe disease: TLC < 50% of the predicted value
slide 4
Causes of RLD
slide 5
what is pulmonary edema caused by?
intravascular fluid leakage into the interstitium & alveolar space
slide 6
acute pulmonary edema can be caused by
- increased capillary pressure or by
- increased capillary permeability
slide 6
what 2 things lead to capillarry stress failure?
- increased capillary pressure
- increased capillary permeability
slide 6
How does pumonary edema appear on CXR?
- appears as bilateral, symmetric perihilar opacities
slide 6
butterfly fluid pattern on CXR is more commonly seen w/
increased capillary pressure than increased capillary permeability
slide 6
Pulmonary edema c/b increased capillary permeability is characterized by
a high concentration of protein and secretory products in the edema fluid
slide 6
Diffuse alveolar damage is typically present with the increased-permeability pulmonary edema, which is associated with ____
ARDS
slide 6
what is seen in acute decompensated HF
cardiogenic pulmonary edema
slide 7
what is cardiogenic pulmonary edema charcterized by?
- marked dyspnea
- tachypnea
- elevated cardiac pressures, and
- SNS activation
is more pronounced than pts with increased-permeability pulmonary edema
slide 7
when should cardiogenic pulmonary edema be suspected?
if pt has decreased systolic or diastolic cardiac function
slide 7
cardiogenic pulonary edema risk is increased w/conditions that acutely increase preload such as:
- acute aortic regurgitation
- acute mitral regurgitation
slide 7
cardiogenic pulmonary edema risk is also increased w/conditions that increase afterload or SVR such as:
- LV outflow tract obstruction
- mitral stenosis, and
- reno-vascular HTN
slide 7
what is negative pressure pulmonary edema AKA?
post-obstructive pulmonary edema
slide 8
____ results after the relief of an acute upper airway obstruction
negative pressure pulmonary edema
