Q

All of the following materials will be found in the alveoli of a patient with ARDS EXCEPT:

a. leukocytes.
b. cellular debris.
c. fibrin.
d. hyaline membrane.

A

leukocytes.

19
Q

A patient has a prolonged case of ARDS. What changes would be expected in the patient’s alveolar cells?

a. Multiplication of the type I cells
b. Influx of macrophages
c. Hyperplasia and swelling of the type II cells
d. Development of emphysema

A

Hyperplasia and swelling of the type II cells

20
Q

Which of the following pulmonary changes are associated with ARDS?

  1. Abnormal surfactant
  2. Interstitial edema
  3. Decreased shunt
  4. Narrowing of the alveolar-capillary membrane
A
  1. Abnormal surfactant

What is the reason for the elevated risk of developing ARDS associated with massive blood transfusions?

a. Shock (hypovolemia)
b. Receiving the wrong blood type
c. Fat emboli
d. Blockages in pulmonary blood vessels

A

Blockages in pulmonary blood vessels

With massive transfusions, aggregated cells in stored blood can occlude or damage the small pulmonary blood vessels

“ground-glass” appearance of the lungs.

31

a. Normal lungs
b. Mild ARDS
c. Moderate ARDS
d. Severe ARDS

A

Moderate ARDS

Moderate ARDS is present when the PaO2/FIO2 ratio falls between 100 and 199 mm Hg.
