Which drugs are can be used as both a RESCUE for asthma and a CONTROL for COPD?
Ipratropium and Tiotropim
Which drugs are used as a RESCUE for BOTH asthma and COPD?
Albuterol
Which drug(s) are used as a control for ASTHMA only?
Montelukast, Omalizumab
Which drug(s) are used as control for BOTH asthma and copd?
Salmeterol, Fluticasone
Incr in airway resistance is a hallmark of what type of lung disease?
Obstructive
What are 2 characersistics of obstructive lung disease?
- Decr airflow (b/c decr elasticity or incr raw in zone 0-10)
- Limited airflow during EXPIRATION
Low lung-cw compliance is a hallmark of what type of lung disease?
Restrictive
parenchyma fibrosis
A pt with restrictive lung disease has
a.Low FEV1/FVC
b. High FEV1/FVC
c. Normal FEV/FVC
Normal FEV/FVC
equal decr in fev1 andfvc
What is asthma
spasmodic contrctiion of smooth muscle in the bronchi
What is COPD
- Bronchitis: inflammation of the bronchi and bronchioles (inr mucus)
- Emphysema: alveolar destruction
- Combination
also cystic fibrosis and bronchiectasis
Which zone has higheset resistanace to airflow?
a. CZ
b. RZ
CZ (zone 1-10)
Alveoli does not have ____
smooth muscle
The further down we go in the airway towards the RZ the ____ the cross-sectional area
higher
lower resistance
What are the factors that determine airway resistance?
- Structure of airways
- Airway smooth muscle contraction
- Lumen obstruction (mucus)
- Elasticity of Lung parenchyma
“SALE”
For airway smooth muscle contraction, when receptors activates, they will incr ____ by g protein ____ causing smooth muscle contraction
Intracellular Ca2+
G protein Q
What are diff receptors that can lead to airway smooth muscle contraction when activated?
- Histamine
- Muscuranic
- LTD4
- Substance P
you can have histamine induced bronchospasm
What does autonomic control of airway resistance to the airways provide?
- Provides reflex arc for airway constriction following inhalation of irritants
- Provides airway dilation during exercise
Explain the reflex arc for autonomic control of airway resistance
- You have an irritant come in
- Signal travels up to the medualla via afferent neurons
- Activates PNS and ACh is released
- Constriction of airway to remove irritant
Explain how autonomic control of airway resistance can dilate airways during exercise
- Decr PNS influence
- incr CIRCULATING epi (no direct SNS innervation of smooth airway muscle)
- Bronchodilation
