Q

acute respiratory distress syndrome- ARDS

A

severe ALI- progressive respiratory insufficiency caused by diffuse alveolar damage due to sepsis, trauma, or infection

Q

key features of ARDS

A
post insult- trauma, sepsis, infection
patchy infiltrate on CXR
hypoxemia unresponsive to oxygen
ventilation/perfusion abnormalities
decreased surfactant --> PEEP ventilation required
hyaline membranes
uniform temporal appearance

18
Q

PEF

A

peak expiratory flow

highest flow measured with peak flow meter

19
Q

emphysema

A

irreversible wall destruction with over inflation

obstructive

20
Q

chronic bronchitis

A

productive cough with airway inflammation

obstructive

21
Q

asthma

A

reversible obstruction
hyperactive airways triggered by allergens, infection, or other
obstructive

22
Q

COPD

A

emphysema + chronic bronchitis

common in smokers

23
Q

centriacinar emphysema

A
big and small alveoli
central with distal sparing
upper lobes and apices
associated with smoking
explained by protease/anti-protease hypothesis
24
Q

pancinar emphysema

A

uniformly enlarged acini
from respiratory bronchiole to terminal alveoli
lower lobes
associated with alpha1-AT deficiency (genetic)

25
gene involved in emphysema
NRF2
26
PiMM
normal Alpha1-AT enzyme involved with emphysema
27
PiZZ
abnormal alpha1-AT enzyme involved with emphysema
28
emphysema is noticed when
1/3 of lung parenchyma is damaged
29
symptoms of emphysema
``` dyspnea, cough, wheeze, weight loss cor pulmonale respiratory acidosis pneumothorax RHF ```
30
bullous emphysema
end stage for centriacinar large subpleural blebs rupture can cause pneumothorax
31
chronic bronchitis
3 month productive cough with sputum production goblet cell hyperplasia --> over production of mucos cigarette smoking bronchial wall fibrosis
32
simple chronic bronchitis
productive cough without obstruction
33
chronic asthmatic bronchitis
hyperactive airways with intermittent bronchospasm and wheezing
34
obstructive chronic bronchitis
chronic airflow obstruction usually paired with emphysema
35
pathogenesis of chronic bronchitis
mucos over production with decreased surfactant production in response to chronic inflammation can become infected
36
blue bloater
chronic bronchitis- hypercapnia, hypoxemia, cyanosis | barrel chested
37
pink puffer
emphysema weight loss, lean forward breathing through pursed lips
38
biggest intervention for COPD
smoking cessation
39
biggest factor of chronic bronchitis
smoking
40
bronchiectasis
permanent dilation of bronchi/bronchioles due to muscle and elastic tissue destruction from chronic necrotizing infections
41
mucus gland hyperplasia
chronic bronchitis
42
airway dilation
bronchiectasis
43
alveolar wall destruction
emphysema
44
hyaline membranes
ARDS
